Say, I have 2 Sql Server databases and I sometimes need to pull data from both of them. SELECT a.* FROM LocalTable a INNER JOIN \\ip address\servername\dbname.remote_table b ON a.primarykey=b.somekey Is there any way to fill the lengthy name of my remote server into a variable and use @var.remote_table in the code shown above? It often creates problem if ip address or servername changes and also makes the code look nasty. Please help me to get rid of this problem out. Please, help me in the following.
