Like MySQL has “SHOW TABLES” , how do you count tables in Oracle DB. Little bit of research gave me this query:

select owner, count(*) from dba_tables

So like MySQL has a standard command, does Oracle have one?

    Yeah sure your query will work just modify it a little. Look here for refrence : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/statviews_2105.htm#i1592091

    Run this:

    SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM DBA_TABLES;

    to get list of tables.

    and Run this:

    SELECT Count(*) FROM DBA_TABLES;

    to get the count of tables.
