I vaguely remember someone supplying a syntax for "faking" a record in SQL without having to actually supply a table name. I want to return a single record from SQL that looks like: HSomeCompanyName20061227 This is not data pulled out of any table, it is just "made up". I can do this by aliasing the three fields and then telling SQL that it came FROM SomeRealTable and then use a distinct clause etc. But I seem to remember some way of doing this without even supplying the name of a real table. Anyone have a clue what I am saying and how to do this? John W. Colby Colby Consulting www.ColbyConsulting.com
