Having posted, I just realized what the correct syntax is:

SELECT hundred * 100 + ten * 10 + unit + 1
  FROM	( VALUES( 0 ), ( 1 ), ( 2 ), ( 3 ),
                ( 4 ), ( 5 ), ( 6 ), ( 7 ),
                ( 8 ), ( 9 )
        ) AS Units( unit )
	CROSS JOIN 
	( VALUES( 0 ), ( 1 ), ( 2 ), ( 3 ),
                ( 4 ), ( 5 ), ( 6 ), ( 7 ),
                ( 8 ), ( 9 )
        ) AS Tens( ten )
	CROSS JOIN
	( VALUES( 0 ), ( 1 ), ( 2 ), ( 3 ),
                ( 4 ), ( 5 ), ( 6 ), ( 7 ),
                ( 8 ), ( 9 )
         ) AS Hundreds( hundred )
ORDER BY hundred * 100 + ten * 10 + unit + 1 ;

Sorry for the noise. :o(
