I just saw a script on this site for object search across the db's. I have written an alternate version with sp_msforeachdb undocumented sp which is much simpler.This avoids a lot of code and dynamic sql.Replace "object_name" with the name of the object which needs to be searched across the databases.

You may be wonderfully up-to-date with an AJAX Web interface or the latest whizbang Windows user interface, but under the covers, you're probably still pumping data in and out of a database, just as we all did a decade or more ago. That makes it all the more surprising that developers are still making the same database mistakes that date back to those good old days of Windows 95 and before.
