I know I've seen this but can't even begin to guess where that was so I'll
ask. I need to add a fake entry to a UNION. A row that doesn't exist in
the table and shouldn't. It's for a CGI script where I want the user have
the all/none/whatever option.

select tbl_key, equipname from equipment
UNION
select 'All', 'All Equipment' from ???

Heck I can't even remember what is was called in Oracle.

TIA,
Rod
