    ,qs.total_elapsed_time / 1000000.0 AS TotalSecond
    ,qt.text AS Query
    ,o.name AS OBJECTName
    ,DB_NAME(qt.dbid) DatabaseName
FROM 
    sys.dm_exec_query_stats qs
        CROSS APPLY
    sys.dm_exec_sql_text(qs.sql_handle) AS qt
        LEFT OUTER JOIN 
    sys.objects o ON qt.objectid = o.object_id
