1) Insert the data into a table on the linked server and access it directly from there with the local sproc.

2) Use a table valued parameter to pass the data set. That is the second time I have recommended those today.

Procedure B could simply read records from Table A

What do you mean by a "loop back" problem?

Loop back is not so much of a problem as distributed transactions which hold exclusive lock on remote servers.

Try to avoid pushing data to a remote server, it always better to "ask" it to pull data from your server.

I understand now and I agree. Server A can start a procedure running on Server B and Server B can pull the data across.

I would really have to see the data flow here as a diagram. If proc B is calling proc A (after already being ran), what is proc A doing this time? Is it going to insert data back into table A? what happens to the data that was already residing there? Updated? Appened to? It seems like you would go into a loop here. I would venture to say that whatever that proc on server B is doing, you can create it over on Server A at the very least. I would have to know more to give sound advise.
