Why am I getting an error Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
Incorrect syntax near '='. My code follows:

SELECT 'Production' AS Environment, 
	@@SERVERNAME  AS [Server] =
		CASE [Server]
			WHEN 'SQL01' THEN 'SQL01.HOME.ORG'
		END,
	loginname, sysadmin
FROM syslogins
ORDER BY loginname

Hmmm - that code give the expected error :

Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
Invalid column name 'Server'.

Ok - I figured it out:

SELECT 'Production' AS Environment,
CASE @@SERVERNAME
WHEN 'SQL01' THEN 'SQL01.HOME.ORG'
END AS [Server],
loginname, sysadmin
FROM syslogins
ORDER BY loginname
