When using the four-part naming scheme in SQL Server, is it possible to specify port information along with the server name. &nbsp;For example, these do not work for me:<br />
<br />
[servername,portnum].[datb<wbr />asename].[<wbr />dbo].[tabl<wbr />ename]<br />
[servername:portnum].[datb<wbr />asename].[<wbr />dbo].[tabl<wbr />ename]<br />
<br />
Thanks
