[!INCLUDEssNoVersion] and the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] Native Client ODBC driver support the ODBC API transaction management functions. [!INCLUDEmsCoName] offers full support for local transactions on an individual server. The [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] Native Client ODBC driver uses these features to support the ODBC API functions that manage transactions.
Through the use of the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC), the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] Native Client ODBC driver can participate in distributed transactions spanning multiple servers.
