| SELECT name FROM master..sysdatabases WHERE name NOT IN ('master', 'model', 'msdb', 'tempdb')You may have additional system DB's if you have replication on that server. Just add those names to the IN list. |

| select [name] from master..sysdatabases where id>4 and name<>'distribution'-which is the same as robvolk, just add 'distribution' (replication)--------------------keeping it simple... |
