Re: Searching for column in query result

If you're the query author, simplest remedy is to write queries with human readability in mind.

If you're the author and unreadable numbers of columns are required for some inarguable reason, consider offering an option to save the result to a table, which you can then search with another query.

Otherwise it depends on how you're executing the query. If the result is going to a webpage, text search on the page will find the column name as rendered by the query. If the query was executed in an application, you're at the mercy of that app.
