@Joe
Yes, this is a good solution that I can apply.
Than you

Here's a very dumb option off the top of my head:

with T1 as (select A, B, ..., Z from ...)
select count(*), '' as A, 0 as B, ..., ' ' as Z from T1
union 0, A, B, ..., Z from T1

The first line creates your CTE. The second line creates a count record
where the first field is the count and all the other fields are blank or
zero, the third line brings in all the records from the CTE but with 0
in the count field.

Short of a temporary table, that's the best I can come up with, and it
doesn't address doing a bunch of other subselects on that data. For
that, I definitely think you need a temporary table.

@Vernon,
I didn't attach any example because it's really complex, but you got it
right.
As you stated, select statements can't return more than one result, so I
was wondering if it's possible to use a CET to serve multiple selects,
and
it seems it's not.
Yes, the many selects that run have the same from clause and where clause
(built with host variables as you imagined), that's why I hoped I missed
some tricks or ways to do things.
Thank you
