    2 things I need to...

    1 Truncate my MYSQL table via Linked server using OPENQUERY if possible.

    2 If truncate is not possible can I reseed the id field after running DELETE FROM OPENQUERY (****)

    Would prefer to truncate if possible rather than delete.

    These are performed using a linked server

    LinkedServerName.Catalog.Schema.TableName

    What is the default schema of a 4 part qualifier name for a MYSQL table?

    i think you can do it like this?

    EXECUTE ( 'TRUNCATE TABLE SalesTable' ) AT MyLinkedServer;

    that code example is how i can calla CREATE TABLE command at a remote, i think you can do the same for truncate.

    --create a table on the remote

    EXECUTE ( 'CREATE TABLE Sandbox.dbo.SalesTable

    (SalesID int, SalesName varchar(20)) ; ' ) AT PROD2K8;
