Use Perl with Teradata::SQL, DBD::Teradata, or DBD::ODBC. The code will go something like this:

     $dbh = connect("dbc/bogart,bacall");

     foreach $t (@list_of_tables) {
      $dbh->"show table $t";
      # Process the SHOW TABLE output here. Most statements take one row; large
     tables
      # might take two or three. Note that the output includes carriage returns
     ("\r"), so
      # you'll probably want to change those to blanks or "\n".
      # Store the SHOW TABLE output in an array, @show.
      # Now store the output in your target table. Double the quotes if
     necessary.
      $dbh->"insert into target_table values ('@show');" ;
     }

Hope this helps.
