Changing Properities of a Linked Server

  • Hi, is there anyway to change the properties (Product name, data source, provider string, etc...) of an existing linked server? When I go to the properties screen, all the options are grayed out.

  • i'm pretty sure you have to to drop and recreate the linked server;

    i'd script the linked server out and change the script.

    I'm not much of a GUI kind of guy;
