All of the above options can be used to execute a stored procedure on a remote Adaptive Server. The first option "exec server_name.[database_name].[owner].procedure_name" uses the "exec" keyword to execute the stored procedure. The second option "execute server_name.[database_name].[owner].procedure_name" uses the "execute" keyword to execute the stored procedure. The third option "server_name.[database_name].[owner].procedure_name" directly specifies the server name, database name, owner, and procedure name without any keywords. Therefore, all of these options can be used to execute a stored procedure on a remote Adaptive Server.
