Hi Robert, This is the message I'm getting. "Cannot specify an index or locking hint for a remote data source." This is how my code looks like. $sql="Select * From [1.1.1.1.].MyDB.dbo.MyTable";// echo $sql; $result=mssql_query($sql); echo mssql_get_last_message();$num=mssql_num_rows($result); If you can make anything out of this piece of code and suggest me something else. That'll be great. Thanks for your time.
