SQL2000. I have two servers registered in enterprise manager. I would like to run a stored procedure from a database on one server which gets data from a table on the second server. For example, assuming we have: Stored Procedure1 in database1 on server 1 Table2 in Database2 on Server 2 I would like to do something like this in Database1 Select * From Server2.Database2.dbo.Table2 The error message I get when trying to save the procedure is "The number name contains more than the maximum number of prefixes. The maximum is three." How can I reference the data on the other server? Regards David Emerson Dalyn Software Ltd Wellington, New Zealand
