    Linked servers: URGENT!!

    can anyone give the syntax for executing a stored procedure which is sitting on server1 from server2. Name of the server1 is having dashes in it like
    'a-b-c'.

    I am trying to run something like this from server2 using linked servers concept.Servers are successfully linked.But I am not able to run the query from server2.Here is the error I am getting.


    Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
    Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'b'.

    Apparently because of the dash in the name of the server1. Can anyone give me the correct syntax here??
    Thanks!

    i haven't tested this one, but usually for reserved words you use [], like this [a-b-c]..
