Hi all,

I can't retrieve records of the different databases in a single query, I use the following code:

VB

OpenDatabase1()
OpenDatabase2()
Command.Connection = ConDB
Command.CommandType = CommandType.Text
Command.CommandText = "SELECT d1.Name,d2.Medium FROM Database1.Table1 AS d1, Database2.Table2 AS d2 WHERE d1.ID = d2.ID"
ObjDtReader = Command.ExecuteReader
  If ObjDtReader.Read = True Then
    Var1 = ObjDtReader("Name")
    Var2 = ObjDtReader("Medium")
End If
ObjDtReader.Close()
ConDB.Close()</pre>

how to get those records? thanks b4

Solution 2

you forgot to write schema name 'dbo'

SQL

SELECT d1.Name,d2.Medium 
FROM Database1.dbo.Table1 AS d1, 
     Database2.dbo.Table2 AS d2 
WHERE d1.ID = d2.ID

Happy Coding!
:)
