在数据库内任何表的任何列中搜索一个值

有没有一种方法可以char(64)在一个MS SQL Server数据库内的任何表的任何列中搜索一个值（在我的情况下，它是类型的UID ）？

我坐在一个巨大的数据库前，不知道如何将表链接在一起。为了找出答案，我想列出所有表，并且在任何行中都包含某个值的列。那可能吗？

一种方法是将整个数据库转储到文本文件中，然后使用任何文本编辑器搜索值-但这将是纯粹的痛苦，如果数据库太大。

如何在数据库中所有表的所有列中搜索关键字？

编辑：在链接腐烂的情况下，这是实际的T-SQL：

下面提到的所有第三方工具都是100％免费的。

我已经成功地使用ApexSQL Search来搜索表中的对象和数据。它具有其他一些功能，例如关系图等。

但是，在大型（40GB TFS数据库）数据库上我的速度有点慢...

除此之外，还有SSMS工具包，它提供了许多非常有用的其他功能，即使这些功能与搜索文本没有直接关系。

我扩展了代码，因为它没有告诉我“ record number”，我必须重新引用它。

我有一个解决方案，我一直在改进。如果要求这样做，还可以在XML列内搜索，如果提供了仅整数的字符串，也可以搜索整数值。

我在https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/c0c57332-8624-48c0-b4c3-5b31fe641c58找到了一个相当强大的解决方案，我认为值得指出。它搜索以下类型的列：varchar，char，nvarchar，nchar，text。它的效果很好，并支持特定的表格搜索以及多个搜索词。

在http://www.reddyss.com/SQLDownloads.aspx上有一个不错的脚本 。

为了能够在任何数据库上使用它，您可以像下面这样创建它：http : //nickstips.wordpress.com/2010/10/18/sql-making-a-stored-procedure-available-to-all-databases/

不知道是否还有其他方法。

要使用它，然后使用类似这样的东西：

use name_of_database

EXEC spUtil_SearchText 'value_searched', 0, 0

在尝试@regeter的解决方案并看到它不能解决我的问题后，当我搜索外键/主键以查看存在它的所有表/列时，它没有用。在阅读了对另一个尝试使用唯一标识符的尝试失败之后，我进行了修改，这是更新的结果：（与int和guids一起使用...您将看到如何轻松扩展）
