Is it possible to reference an external Database (on the same SQL Server Instance) within a stored porcedure? For example, I have a database called COMMON and a Database called ACCOUNTX. ACCOUNTX has a stored procedure that queries a table. There is a table in COMMON with a list of zipcodes. I would like to join the table in ACCOUNTX to some records from this table in COMMON.
