Get All Columns in All Tables of a Specific Data Type

We can get all columns in all tables of a specific data type. The example below gets all INT columns in the entire database

SELECT OBJECT_NAME(sys.columns.OBJECT_ID) as TableName, sys.columns.name as ColumnName    FROM sys.columns    JOIN sys.types ON sys.columns.user_type_id = sys.types.user_type_id    WHERE sys.types.name = 'INT'
