Finding Tables in SQL Server That Contain a Certain Column Name

Here's a query you can run in SQL Server to find tables containing a certain column name -- just replace "UserId" in the WHERE clause below with the text of the column name you're searching for: SELECT    t.name AS TableName,         SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS SchemaName,         c.name AS ColumnName FROM    sys.tables AS t INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID WHERE    c.name LIKE '%UserId%' -- Replace UserId with what you're looking for ORDER BY SchemaName, TableName;
