Thread restricted transaction on multiple databases

Is it possible to have a restricted transaction using tables from more than one database?
When I try adding a table from a different database to my tableslist, the StartTransaction
says 'Table or backup file _____ does not exist'. It drops the name of the table's database.

Come to think of it, is it possible to have a regular transaction using tables from more
than one database? I've had them for some time, and the query works, but for all I know
may not be including the foreign table in the transaction.

I'm using v4.24 build 1 and D5. Thanks.

It isn't, unfortunately. Frown

Per your other post, yes, you can use two separate transactions to get a
similar effect.
