| I want to update the table on a linked server with data from a table on my server.How can I do this using openquery ? when I tried using openquery passing linked server , it does not recognise the database myDB as it is on my server.Any suggestions to accomplish the below statement using linked server.... UPDATE LinkedDB.dbo.tVendorMMStest SET LinkedDB.dbo.tVendorMMStest.VendorName=myDB.dbo.tVendorMaster.VName, LinkedDB.dbo.tVendorMMStest.KeyDate= getdate() FROM myDB.dbo.tVendorMaster WHERE LinkedDB.dbo.tVendorMMStest .VendID= myDB.dbo.tVendorMaster.VendorNumber |
