You could use ApexSQL Propagate  It is a free tool which executes multiple scripts on multiple databases  You can select as many scripts as you need and execute them against one or multiple databases  even multiple servers   You can create scripts list and save it  then just select that list each time you want to execute those same scripts in the created order  multiple script lists can be added also      When scripts and databases are selected  they will be shown in the main window and all you have to do is to click the    Execute    button and all scripts will be executed on selected databases in the given order
