  Hello All,

  I needs some help, I have 6 databases on the same server. The table structure is the same in all the databases. I need to run a query against all 6 databases that will show that Acct Number, Acct Description, Creation Date and Index Number. The result should be displayed in one result window with all 6 databases results.

  Thank you,

  You can use a UNION to grab all results. Query with the FROM having database.schema.object

  as in

  ...

  FROM db1.dbo.Accounts

  Something like this

  select * from db1.dbo.table union all

  select * from db2.dbo.table union all

  select * from db3.dbo.table union all

  select * from db4.dbo.table
