Did you try copying my code and changing the servername?

Try osql -SServerNameHere -E -dmaster -Q"sp_msforeachdb @command1='print "?"'"
C:\>osql -SWIP-7ADLZFDZW -E -dmaster -Q"sp_msforeachdb @command1="print '?'""
I tried your code only.WIP-7ADLZFDZW is the server name.

The correct syntax is:
osql -SWIP-7ADLZFDZW -E -dmaster -Q"sp_msforeachdb @command1='print ?'"
Double quotes around the SQL command line query and single quotes around the @command input.

Tried this osql -SWIP-7ADLZFDZW -E -dmaster -Q"sp_msforeachdb @command1='print ?'"
But giving error like this for all databases.
Server: Msg 128, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
The name 'DBA' is not permitted in this context. Only constants, expressions, or variables allowed here. Column names are not permitted.
But if you execute
sp_msforeachdb @command1="print '?' "
in QAthis will give correct result.
Any Idea??

The solution is extra double quotes to quote the quotes:
... -Q"sp_msforeachdb @command1="""print '?'""""
Thats single quotes around the question mark, 3 double quotes before the print command and 4 (yes four!) double quotes at the end.
