@Xolink1389 Perhaps like below

1) Select * ... Where 1=2;

I have tried this, and it seems to be OK.

Load * Inline [
Name
a
b
c
] Where 1=2;

You could try 

FMIT:

LOAD *;

SQL SELECT *

FROM FMIT

LIMIT 0;

 

This query will be selecting all the columns (*) from the FMIT table, and using the LIMIT 0 means it will not return any rows (only the column names)

It should be with Load statement not select statement.

Here are the respective syntaxes for a standard SQL SELECT statement and a Preceding Load:

FMIT:
SQL SELECT *
FROM FMIT
WHERE 1=2;

or

FMIT:
LOAD *
WHERE 1=2;
SQL SELECT *
FROM FMIT;

I see that you already have found a solution to your issue, that's great.

The suggestion I sent you was in mysql syntax and your database is probably not mysql.

 

In MSSQL you can try this

SELECT TOP 0 *
FROM FMIT;

 

In Oracle you can try this

SELECT *
FROM FMIT
FETCH FIRST 0 ROWS ONLY;
