Subject: Something i'm missing  

Hey everybody,

   This is probably something easy and simple i'm missing. I'm using the & in the WHERE clause of a query to get certain information. How do i get ALL the information, too. Essentially, blanking out the where clause.  

select blah_col

from blah_table

where blah_col = &blah_variable;  

When the prompt comes up, if i just want all in info, is it possible to get this? I just hit enter and didn't work.
