I think in your case you better set it to alias/cursor type instead, have a method to run your SQL, check if there are records in the cursor and add one blank record if there is none.

I think I have a class for this using array as a rowsource, but it looks like having cursor for your case would be easier.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
