The GUI MSDTC actually matched what the queries showed i.e. killing the SPID also removed it from the GUI. Restarting the MSDTC didn't work but restarting the SQL Server Service ended up fixing the issue. Thanks for your suggestion.

If so, it will probably be marked as in-doubt. so right click on it and choose to Abort or Forget it. Otherwise try restarting MSDTC. The transaction should still be visible in the MSDTC GUI.

I wonder if you can help. I seem to be having problems with an orphan transaction blocking a resource. I've posted the problem here: http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic834337-364-1.aspx Thanks Hi,
