  • in that case, assuming you wanted the value as columns again like your first query, it would go like this...notice i did a simple cross join, on a table we know has just one row.

    select * from openquery([abc],'SELECT

    myAlias.name,

    myAlias.VersionInfo,

    DB.*,

    CONVERT(VARCHAR(25), DB.name) AS dbName

    from sys.databases DB

    CROSS JOIN (select

    name,

    @@version As VersionInfo

    from sys.servers

    where server_id =0) myAlias')
