MS SQL Server A Name: A

MS SQL Server B Name: B

I want to connect server B to A so that when I am in server A, I can access database and tables from server B

Using SQL Management studio, connect to A and run the following command:

EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = N’B‘, @srvproduct=N’B‘, @provider=N’SQLOLEDB’,

@datasrc=N’B‘, @provstr=N’Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=B;UID=xx;PWD=xx‘,
