Multiple SQL servers in same query

2 New Member
I need to write a compound query to access two different SQL servers. When I specify the server name as a prefix to the database name i get syntax error. I can not seem to find any examples of how to qualify which server i want to access the database from. I need to access two databases that are located in two different servers.

I am using SQL server mgt studio and connected to both servers.

What error are you getting?

It's usually follows this format:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.  
  2. select * from yourserver.yourdb.owner.yourtable
  3.  
  4.  

Happy Coding!

Hi, We have a website which is deployed to multiple web servers by robocopy across a WAN. In visual studio 2005 if you choose to publish the site to a directory it regenerates all of the dlls and for some reason changes all of the last modified dates on the aspx files to the present. This means that every trivial change to the website involves re-uploading everything again. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi all, I have a php/mysql website where people can upload their own graphics for the buttons and background of pages on the website. This used to run on one server, but I have now been asked to set it up on multiple servers. The problem is that when someone uploads a file, how do I distribute it to all of the servers? Should I use php to send it to all of the servers once

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
