Include a blank row in query results

I would like to add an empty row to my result set at the very top of my SQL query.

The query I am using is this:

SELECT 
    PROFILETITLE, DOCID 
FROM
    PROFILES
WHERE 
    COMPANYCODE = ? 
ORDER BY 
    PROFILETITLE

Answer 1

Try to use union all

SELECT null as PROFILETITLE, null as DOCID 
UNION ALL
SELECT PROFILETITLE, DOCID 
FROM PROFILES
WHERE COMPANYCODE=? 
ORDER BY PROFILETITLE

but if you wont to add header, and if DOCID is int type, you have to use union all and cast as below

SELECT 'PROFILETITLE' as PROFILETITLE, 'DOCID' as DOCID 
UNION ALL
SELECT PROFILETITLE, CAST ( DOCID AS varchar(30) )
FROM PROFILES
WHERE COMPANYCODE=? 
ORDER BY PROFILETITLE
