Matt's correct. You have to have a PIVOT to aggregate your rows onto the column. Otherwise, what's the use of the pivot?
Of course, you can put a dummy aggregation in...

Oy, I wish!
However, there's a minor workaround.
Register all your servers in the "Registered Servers" sidebar. Keep that pinned open so every morning, all you have to do is doubleclick...

Aha! Remembered what it was. This is a poor example because I can't give you my real data and I had a much more complex query. Suffice to say, though,...

Sounds to me like the test script is trying to alter some other account's login / permissions information. That might be why it needed SA access. Of course, the account...

PerfMon can also be used to check things like RAM usage, even for SQL Server. I can't remember which SQL Server counter it is, though, off the top of my...

Fernando,
You actually have a pretty good solution. Unless the table information needs to be further processed, that proc is a quick and dirty way to get the list. The proc...

I understand what you're saying about the timestamp perfectly. However, you're still sending a ton of records one way or the other over the network. Let me put it this...
