ExecuteImmediate Method (LinkedServer, RemoteServer)

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The ExecuteImmediate method connects to a linked server or remote server data source, executes a Transact-SQL command batch on the connection, and disconnects.

Syntax

object.ExecuteImmediate(Command, [ Length ] )

Parts

  • object
    Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.

  • Command
    String that specifies a Transact-SQL command batch.

  • Length
    Optional. Long integer that indicates the statement batch length.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT ExecuteImmediate(
SQLDMO_LPCSTR Command,
long lLength CPPDEFAULT(= 0));

Remarks

When using the ExecuteImmediatemethod with the LinkedServer object, command batch syntax is provider-specified. For more information, see the OLE DB provider documentation.
