How To List The Column Names Of A Table On SQL Server

Read Time:26 Sec

We all know that most database tables in EnterpriseOne have a large number of columns. In fact, they usually push the limits of the RDBMS.

Well sometimes, you need a list of those columns for things like INSERT statements.

Below is how you can get the column names from a table in a SQL Server database:

USE JDE_PY910
SELECT [name] AS [Column Name]
FROM syscolumns
WHERE id = (SELECT id FROM sysobjects WHERE type = 'U' AND [Name] = 'F98950')

You can use either type V (views) or U (tables).
