I'd use:
select table_name
from information_schema.columns
where table_schema='my_schema'
and column_name='col1'
Lots of good info here: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/information-schema.html

Greetings,
I am not very familiar with the system views/tables in postgreSQL. I'd
like to get all table names that have a column let's say named "col1".
For example,
t1 (... col1 varchar(3) ... )
t2 (... col1 varchar(3) ... )
t3 (... ...)
After querying the system tables/views, I can get the result something
like :
tables contain column "col1"
---------------------------------------------
t1
t2
(2 rows)
Thanks a lot,
Emi
