You can fully qualify both tables and stored procedures. In other words you can do this:

UPDATE [OtherDB].[Schema].[targetTable] SET ...

It appears you are doing this in your proc already.

You can also EXEC a stored procedure using the Fully Qualified name - e.g.

EXEC [OtherDB].[dbo].[usp_TrimAndLowerCaseVarcharFields]

Honestly, your proc looks fine, are you receiving any error messages? If so please post them. Also, make sure your user has access to the other DB.
