Hi. There is limitation of xml support from SQL server 2005. Xml data
type is not supported in distributed queries. So the workaround is to
use openquery. But is there a workaround to insert/update the table
with XML through linked server? Or this is not possible in sql server
2005? Thanks,

George

The other thing I have done is to cast the XML to nvarchar(max) before
bringing it across. Whether your XML can stand this cast depends on a number
of factors.
