Dear friends,
I have a linked server with an sqlserver2000 DB
The linked server is an access DB which is lying in the Sql server Machine and is shared among all the users.
Now when the user tries to connect they are getting the following error

Server: Msg 7303, Level 16, State 2, Procedure smscustomer, Line 2
Could not initialize data source object of OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL'.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: Operation was canceled.]

Please Help.

what is line 2 of you smscustomer procedure?
Can you browse the tables in the linked server via EM?
what are you settings for the linked server (both connection and security)? Do you have internal security on the Access file?
