Question

I have around 200 database all managed under cpanel phpmyadmin. I need to make similar edits to each of this operation. (2 SQL statements)

I would like to know how do i execute the queries so that it can alter the tables all in all the 200 database. (is there a feature to alter all dbs )

Have no issue executing the queries, however i feel it is inefficient as what i am doing now is to click into each db and execute the sql for that db -> have to do 200+ times.

Good question, you can do following:

// Connect to your mysql server
mysql_connect(...);

// Execute command which gets you list of all database from mysql server
$rs = mysql_query("SHOW DATABASES");

// Loop through all of them and execute your sql statements;
while ( $ds = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs) )
{

    mysql_select_db( $ds['Database'] );
    $sql = "some sql";
    mysql_query($sql);
}

I think something like above should serve the purpose.
