Error Message "Could not find server 'FLDB1' in sysservers....

I'm getting the following message from a VB6 program running ADO...

It will process a job then I get the message.... [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Could not find server 'FLDB1' in syssservers. Execute sp_addlinkedserver to add the server to sysservers...

This started to happen after I moved the db from SS2000 to SS2005...

Our db server and sql server instance on that server are both named 'FLDB1'... Do I need to run the above execute sp_addlinkedserver command on the new 2005 server?

Thanks-Dave

Yes, that would be necessary since you most likely didn't migrate the list of linked servers.
