MSDTC XACT_ABORT - how to stop distributed transctions from starting

Hi,

Any way of stopping a distributed transaction from starting when reading from Linked server via Linked object ? What is differnet from running the table.. vs access in code ?

I can run my view fine... from NAV.. but cannot access in code - same error as if I try and edit the view... which is acceptable - I only need read access.

GET , FINDSET , FINDFIRSET all try ans start a transaction .. which fails.. LinkedIntransaction is No..

I can't setup MSTDC as the SQL is clustered and I don't have access - the Network guys are not helping.

Any thoughts ?
Thanks,
Steve
