Error 7373 in Linked Server

I have created a new linked server entry and when I try to use it, I get the Error 7373 message.

I am rather new to SQLServer, so I would be happy with any help I can get.

Thanks,

DGB

Which sql server version, and which ole db provider (and what is your backend data source) are you using?

The 7373 error code may suggest some errors in the ole db provider itself.

If you are familiar with profiler, you can start the profiler and collect oledb trace events to get more insights into the problem.
