see sp_renamedb.
You will have to make sure there are no users in the database.
It won't rename the database files or logical file names just the database name.

==========================================
Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.

you can use sp_renamedb in sql7/2000 or ALTER DATABASE MODIFY NAME in SQL2K5. check BOL/google for details on both.
