We use to have codeunit using Automation to get some data from another SQL server but now getting errors. We would like to re-write it if possible using other means connecting to SQL Server directly. However I've done some search for such info but no luck. Any link/info as how to connect to another sql server and grab data?

Few years ago we were not existing and few years to come we would be in the grave! So what will benefit us in the grave?

    @kine we still want to use codeunit as it has to be triggered before a report is ran, please elaborate.

    Yes, just instead automation you can use DotNet interop to do what you need... :wink:
