Look up Linked Servers or sp_addlinkedserver in BoL.

For instance in a Select when you write the "from' to unumerate the tables you plan to use, give more detailled table name containing
for the same table 'Roysched' in two databases "pubs" and "pubs2 on the same server (your situation)
the "from" would reference
from pubs..roysched , pubs2..roysched
between the database name and the table name would appear the database owner.

Hope this help.
