How can I list all tables in a database with Squirrel SQL?

I use Squirrel SQL to connect to a JavaDB/Derby database on my desktop. I can run SQL queries.

But how can I list all tables in the database? And preferably all column and column types.

Solution

  • You can do it easily from the GUI. After you open your session, click the Objects tab, then expand the tree. Expand the db, schema, and then table nodes, and you'll see all of your tables. If you click on a particular table node, a table will open to the right. By clicking the Columns tab, you can get the column names, types, and other meta data.

    Or are you looking for SQL commands?
