title: Linked server setup between SQL Server Express and SQL Server
body: <p>Can you please explain how to setup a linked server between a SQL Server (A) and a SQL Server Express (B) scenario.  </p>
  
  <p>Server A is SQL Server 2000, whereas Server B is SQL Server 2005 Express.</p>
  
  <p>I have set these up in the past, but none where connected to a SQL Server Express version.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,
  Billy</p>
