Question

i am trying to grant execute privs in stored proc in more than one database. The problem is this stored proc might not be in some of the databases. So how can i write a script which checks if stored proc exists in database and if does then provide execute privs for user?

Try this:

IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM dbo.sysobjects WHERE id = object_id(N'[dbo].[your_procedure_name]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsProcedure') = 1)
BEGIN
  -- Set privileges here
END
