Access to different databases in different domains

Hi everybody,

there are several SQL-Server 2000 databases within a company located
on different servers in different domains. On every database you can
find the same table X.

I want to merge these tables X (UNION query) and print the result with
a Crystal Report.

Unfortunately I only have little knowledge on security, domains,
distributed applications.

Thanks for help.Have you checked Linked Servers?

The query as such is not tricky:

SELECT ...
FROM SERVER1.db.dbo.tbl
WHERE ...
UNION ALL
SELECT ...
FROM SERVER2.db.dbo.tbl
WHERE ...
UNION ALL
...

The problem may be with setting up the linked servers. You use
sp_addlinkedserver and sp_addlinkedsrvlogin. Supposedly there is a DBA
around with whom you can discuss how to do this.
