There should be little change in the script

DECLARE @databases as table (DbName nvarchar(100), DbSize bigint, Remarks nvarchar(100))

DECLARE @results as table (DbName nvarchar(100), DbSize bigint, ObjectCount bigint)

DECLARE @dbname as nvarchar(100),

@dbsize as bigint,

@remarks as nvarchar(100),

@sql as nvarchar(max)

INSERT INTO @databases EXEC sp_databases

SELECT TOP 1 @dbname = DBName, @dbsize = DBSize FROM @databases

WHILE EXISTS (SELECT TOP 1 * FROM @databases)

BEGIN

SET @sql =

' SELECT ''' + @dbname + ''', ''' +

CAST(@dbsize as nvarchar) + ''', COUNT(1) FROM [' + @dbname +

'].[sys].[objects]'

PRINT @sql

INSERT INTO @results EXEC(@SQL)

DELETE FROM @databases WHERE dbname = @dbname

SELECT TOP 1 @dbname = DBName, @dbsize = DBSize FROM @databases

END

SELECT * FROM @results ORDER BY ObjectCount desc

Thanks

My first thought was to try to use sp_foreachdb

CREATE TABLE #databases(DbName SYSNAME, DbSize BIGINT, Remarks NVARCHAR(100))

INSERT INTO #databases EXEC SP_DATABASES

ALTER TABLE #databases ADD ObjectCount INT

EXEC SP_MSFOREACHDB

'USE [?] ;

UPDATE #databases SET ObjectCount = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM [sys].[objects])

WHERE DBName = "?"'

SELECT * FROM #databases ORDER BY ObjectCount DESC

DROP TABLE #databases

Thanks David! That serves the same purpose in a cleaner, more efficient manner.
