Create View using Linked Server db in SQL Server

Question

How can I create View on Linked Server db. For Example I have a linked server [1.2.3.4] on [5.6.7.8]. Both db servers are SQL Sserver 2005. I want to create View on [5.6.7.8

Answer 1

If the linked server is set up, you just reference tables on it using a four-part qualified name:

linkedserver.database.schema.table

So if your linked server name is [0.0.0.0], you can reference a table as:

[0.0.0.0].database.schema.table
