Subject: Is there a null 
table in SQL


I'm just recently moving from SQL_Server to Oracle.  In 
SQL_Server, I
can use the statement:  " Select 'This is a test' " without a 
FROM
clause.  (In practice, I would probably Select a function, as a quick

test).  In Oracle, this is not allowed, but I seem to remember there
is a fake, 
null, table.  For example, " Select 'This is a test' from
null ".  What is the 
table name I'm thinking of?
