SQL Connect

Hi All,

I was connecting to a web server by using sql. now the name of the
database file has changed and having error in acceccing the file.

previously the file name was like abc_def_ghi.dbo and now the database
file name on the server is like abc.def.ghi.dbo
when i try to use SQL it says the maximum number of prefixes allowd is
three and i exceed the limit. since i have no authority to cahnge the
dbo name, is there a wayaround to overcome this problem?

thanks

Hi,

Probably you should post it to one of the SQL groups. (Usually the majority
of people who answer to posts are active around US day-time, hence, lesser
chances of finding an answer within an Excel group)

Thanks a lot,
