Reference to database and/or server name in 'Azure.dbo.XXX' is not supported in this version of SQL
I am getting an error that seemingly indicates that I'm trying to use linked server or cross-database query when I am in no way trying to.
I've opened a stackexchange question w/ full details but no one has seen this scenario.
Reference to database and/or server name in 'Azure.dbo.XXX' is not supported in this version of SQL Server
(where XXX is my table name)
See full details on StackExchange but basically I can SELECT, INSERT, and UPDATE to this particular table but cannot DELETE from it. When I try to run a DELETE statement, I receive the error above.
Have tried disabling TRIGGERs, have tried various combinations of schema/database/tablename in the FROM clause.
Pulling my hair out here.
David from MSDN forum put me on the right track:
- See what CASCADE DELETE FK constraints there are
- Inspect other table(s)
- See trigger on table with 3 part name in FROM clause
- Correct to 2 part name
- Dance
To see if there are FK relationships w/ DELETE CASCADE:
select * from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.REFERENTIAL_CONSTRAINTS where DELETE_RULE ='CASCADE'

Hi Robert, thank you for posting the solution! I'm sure other users will have the same question.
Hi all,
I (still) have the same issue when using BCP.EXE. Locally, it works:
bcp "select * from myDB.dbo.myTable" queryout mytable.csv -S ServerName -c -T
When executing the same against SQL Azure, the following error results:
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Reference to database and/or server name in 'myDB.dbo.myTable' is not supported in this version of SQL Server.
Hope, this will be possible in near future...? Thx.
