You can view all the tables owned by a user in Oracle database using one of the following methods:

  1. Utilize system view: USER_TABLES
  2. Show me the names of the tables in the database from the user_tables table.
  3. This query will return the names of all tables owned by the current user.
  4. Use system view: ALL_TABLES
  5. Retrieve the table name from all tables where the owner is equal to ‘your_username’.
  6. Replace ‘your_username’ with the username of the table you want to view. This will return the names of all tables that the specified user owns.
  7. Access the system view: DBA_TABLES.
  8. Show all table names from the database that belong to the specified owner.
  9. Replace ‘your_username’ with the username of the user whose tables you want to view. This will return the names of all tables owned by that user. However, in order to query the DBA_TABLES view, you need to have sufficient privileges.

Please note that the above query is only applicable to tables that you have access to. If you do not have sufficient permissions or if the user connected to the database does not have the appropriate permissions, you may not be able to view tables of other users.
