Is there a way to use TransactionScope with an existing connection?

Question

I have some code that works like the advised use of TransactionScope, but has an ambient connection instead of an ambient transaction.

Is there a way to use a Transa

Answer 1

In fact, there is one way.

connection.EnlistTransaction(Transaction.Current)

It works and it doesnt promote transaction to distributed if not necessary (contrary to what documentation says)
