hi Im trying to query information_schema in a different server, if I query sysobjects I have no problem, I however want to use inf.shcema since I understand it will be supported in further versions of sql server,
im using:
select *
from myRemoteServer.myRemoteDb.information_schema.table_constraints
--but not successful

thank you
