If not for the fact that for the last week or so I've been messing with sp_Tables_ex and sp_columns_ex on Linked Oracle servers, I wouldn't have known about sysname either. For those like me still learning, i wouldn't say it was an obvious choice.
didn't mean to come across like that. sysname is mentioned in many samples. Usually the proportion of correct answers vs wrong ones in the QotD is better (unless the question is flawed of course)...
The idea is to learn from these QotD, and everyone does;)
Cheers
