Hi,
Iam trying to update a database in a server from another database which is in another server using linked server.

However iam facing an error as below

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' was unable to begin a distributed transaction.

Both machines are using sql server 2000 on windows server 2003 SP2.

I enabled the network DTC access on both machines but still getting the error.

Any suggestions are highly appreciated
.
Thanks in advance
