It is always too hard to use the Alt + F1 to check and review
if there is a column present in the created table in SQL Server. Further, it
would be much easier if there was a query to find the required column was
present in all tables are not. An easy query for you to find a particular
column from all tables in a database.
USE SQLArena_Test
GO
SELECT t.name AS TABLE_NAME,
SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS
SCHEMA_NAME,
c.name AS COLUMN_NAME
FROM sys.tables AS t
INNER JOIN sys.columns c ON t.OBJECT_ID = c.OBJECT_ID
WHERE c.name LIKE 'Date' --Replace Date with your own column name
ORDER BY schema_name,
table_name;
Now some of them would seek for the same column whether
present or not across all tables and across the database from a server. We can
do that as well by using stored procedure sp_msforeachdb.
EXEC sp_MSForeachdb
' USE [?]
IF ''?'' <> ''master''
AND ''?'' <> ''model''
AND ''?'' <> ''msdb''
AND ''?'' <> ''tempdb''
AND ''?'' like ''database name''
BEGIN
SELECT ''?''
Use the above SELECT statement here to fetch
across all your databases
END'
