foreach (Table table in fileGdb.GetTables())
{
  //Print the name of each table or feature class in the geodatabase

}
CopyVB.NET
'Open the geodatabase
Dim fileGdb As Geodatabase = New Geodatabase("C:\Data\Scotland.gdb")

'Loop over an enumeration of all tables and feature classes
For Each gdbTable As Table In fileGdb.GetTables()
  'Print the name of each table or feature class in the geodatabase
