But you forgot the 'CLARK' in which the character Zhang table, and how to find out?
Here is the code plsql
set serveroutput on declare v_sql varchar2(2000); v_count number; begin for cur in(select t.owner, t.table_name, t.column_name from dba_tab_columns t where t.owner = 'SCOTT') loop begin v_sql := 'select count(1) from ' || cur.owner || '.' || cur.table_name || ' where ' || cur.column_name || ' like ''%CLARK%'''; execute immediate v_sql into v_count; if(v_count >= 1) then dbms_output.put_line(cur.owner || ':' || cur.table_name || ':' || cur.column_name); end if; exception when others then null; end; end loop; end; /
Description:
# If you are not sure which user table, put where t.owner = 'SCOTT' remove full library search, but inefficient to
# execute the code above in plsqldeveloper command window in
results is found in scott user CLARK emp table under the column ename
