You are trying to look for a column name be equal to two different names... I assume you want an OR instead of the AND...

select table_name, column_name
from dba_tab_columns
where (column_name = 'REGISTRATION_NUMBER' OR column_name = 'DOCUMENT_NUMBER') -----Original Message-----

When I run this code both columns I get no rows returned. When I do a desc on one of the tables I see both columns. So, why am I not getting any data?

select table_name, column_name
from dba_tab_columns
where
(column_name = 'REGISTRATION_NUMBER' and column_name = 'DOCUMENT_NUMBER')
