In a query window I receive a message that it can't find
the store procedure. I can run the store procedure in
query analyzer when logged in directly on that server.
I've even tryed running system store procedures like
sp_helpdb, or sp_who and get the same message 'can't find
stored procedure.'
Too also mention that I can't create these as Link
servers because I have SQL replication running.
Replication creates the other servers as remote servers.
