    HI All

    Is it possible to run the MERGE statement using Openrowset or openquery? I tried with below statement:

    You want to run this MERGE as a remote query on SERVER=MYSERVER.

    The MERGE uses a linked server (SERVERXYZ) table as a source.

    What server are you connected to when you run the openrowset query?
