Hi,

, this may sound stupid, but is there a way of retrieving the table names and column names of a database using SQL. I know there is \d in psql, but I don´t know if there is something similar in SQL or if there is a function I can call.

Please reply even if there is no function

Thanks in advance for your help

Matthias
