sql server - find sql table name with a particular column

Question

Is their any other way or sql query to find the database table names with a particular column than shown below,

SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE COLUMN_NAME = 'NameID'

Answer 1

In SQL Server, you can query sys.columns.

Something like:

 SELECT
     t.name
 FROM
     sys.columns c
        inner join
     sys.tables t
        on
           c.object_id = t.object_id
 WHERE
     c.name = 'NameID'

You might want an additional lookup to resolve the schema name, if you have tables in multiple schemas.
