I have a MSSQL2008 and MSSQL2005 in my system.All SP's is up-to-date.

2008;

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (SP2) - 10.0.4000.0 (X64) Sep 16 2010 19:43:16 Copyright (c) 1988-2008 Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 (Build 7600: )

2005;

Now,My question is; I setup to linked to SQL Server 2005 from SQL Server 2008 under the Server Object.But,When I query , I am receiving the following error.

select * from [192.x.x.x].DBName.dbo.TableName

Result;

Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "192.x.x.x" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.

Msg 7312, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

Invalid use of schema or catalog for OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "192.x.x.x". A four-part name was supplied, but the provider does not expose the necessary interfaces to use a catalog or schema.

Thanks in advance,

Cheers,

I once came across a similar problem - I've just dug out the MSDN Blog article I used to fix it. Don't know if this will help you too?
