Adam K DeanA very useful SQL snippet today, courtesy of Danny Dawes and SQLAuthority.
The following query will list all tables that reference a specific column name:
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 '%EmployeeID%'
ORDER BY schema_name, table_name;
Just change %EmployeeID% to the column name you're looking for.
