If I want to run this sort of query in SQL Server, how can I do the same query from one server I am connected to to another?
I tried adding “[ServerName1].” before “[DatabaseName1].[dbo]…” and “[ServerName2].” before “[DatabaseName2].[dbo]…” but that didn’t seem to work.
INSERT INTO [DatabaseName1].[dbo].[TableName]
([FieldName])
SELECT [FieldName] FROM [DatabaseName2].[dbo].[TableName]
Is this possible?
Yes you would use the server-name before the whole rest of object-name like:
However you first have to set up linked servers. Look up linked servers in BOL.
