Yes, all you need is two SqlConnection objects.
You can't "combine" two servers in the the same query: for example you can't use a JOIN to SELECT related records from two tables on different servers. But you can issue SQL commands to one or the other.

What exactly are you trying to do?

"You can't 'combine' two servers in the the same query": I would say that is not correct.
With a "Linked Server" it is possible.

Yes, if you have linked servers you can. But ... from the question, do you think he's that far advanced? :laugh:
