Firstly the obvious question: Why? Where are the names from these
objects coming from? If you can write a query to extract the names then
you could just use Query Analyzer or Management Studio to paste those
names into an editable script and then run the script directly. That
way there is no need for a loop.

If you must do it programmatically then you'll have to do something
with dynamic SQL. See:

http://sommarskog.se/dynamic_sql.html

Personally I'd say that if you have so many schemas that you need a
loop to create them then you definitely have too many schemas... or you
are using them in a highly unconventional manner.

Whenever possible please post enough code to reproduce your problem.
Including CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements usually helps.
State what version of SQL Server you are using and specify the content
of any error messages.
