Hi,
Are you looking for the metadata from the dictionary?
If so you can try this statement

select substr(a.column_name,1,35),a.position,b.constraint_type from user_cons_columns a, user_constraints b where a.table_name = 'XYZ' and a.constraint_name = b.constraint_name and a.table_name = b.table_name and b.constraint_type = 'P'

Hope this helps

Cheers,
Manju
