Dropdown menu help

I have a report with 4 parameters
2 of them are dropdown menus, one contains groups that populate the other
dropdown box with computer names. The report works great but I would like to
have an ALL function in the computer name dropdown box.
From poking around here I was able to plug a UNION SELECT 'All' AS
ComputerName into the dataset that builds the computername list but I am no
sql wiz by any stretch of the imagination and it seems that is just plugging
in All to the dropdown without any meaning behind it.
Has anyone done this sort of thing before or have any examples they could
share?
Thanks!
