create table #TempTbl (DBName varchar(50), Process int default 0)
insert into #TempTbl (DBName) select name from master..sysdatabases where dbid not in(1,2,3,4)
declare @sDbname varchar(50)
while exists (select 'x' from #TempTbl where Process = 0)
begin
select top 1 @sDbname = DBName from #TempTbl where Process = 0
exec ('USE ' + '[' + @sDbname + '] EXEC sp_updatestats')
update #TempTbl
set Process = 1
where DBName = @sDbname
end
drop table #TempTbl
