    Hey Guys:

    I am pretty new to sql. I need help please. I have several client databases across 3 servers; datbase structures are same for all clients. I need to do a select across all datbases. How can I do that? Thanks in advance for your help.

    You can go through Sp_addlinkedserver

    or use linked server in enterprise manager

    after linking you can use ....

    select Servername.databasename.tablename

    Alok thanks for the response. We have two hundred dtabases. One way is to use

     

    EXEC sp_MSForEachDB 'IF ''[?]'' NOT IN (''master'', ''model'', ''msdb'', ''tempdb'')

      select top 10 ''[?]'',* from [?].dbo.individual1 o join [?].dbo.address1 c on o.ind_id =c.ind_id

    '

     

     But I am not sure how can I use the above with complex query that creates temp table for totals and does a select at the end.
