you can't truncate a table that has a foreign key reference.

also, if you delete from the tables out of order, you'll end up with errors as well.

another thing to consider...

i think the only way to do this is to use a function, and have the function return ONE column with all the values in a comma delimited format:

without using e3nterprise manager, here is a copy and paste solution:

declare

 @isql varchar(2000),

 @procname varchar(64)

        create table #procResults(procid int identity(1,1) primary key,ProcText varchar(4000) )

 declare c1 cursor for select name from...

it finds all SQL Server instances by scanning all sorts of methods in order to give a comprehensive list. it's also free.

can you use an outer procedure to determine which database to use?

ie

CREATE procedure pr_dbSwitch as(@dbname) as

declare @sql varchar(2000)

select @isql='USE @dbname pr_yourprocedure'

  select @isql = replace(@isql,'@dbname',@dbname)

  print @isql

  exec(@isql)

that way your proc is not dynamic,...
