I want to retrieve all table names and column names IN A SCHEMA. So if I am in schema scott it should only show all the tables present in scott.
And can the query below only retrieve the tables in a schema?
Select * from tab;
select *
from all_tab_columns
where owner = 'SCOTT'
More details in the manual: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25513/statviews_part.htm#i125539
This query should work:
SELECT *
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
