Axton:
Unless all of the underlying databases support the requested functionality, you will never see it in ARS. Thus, you probably will not see nested queries even if they are quicker and easier.

Subject: Re: Nested SELECT table qualification?
My opinion on the enhancement request is that BMC will not venture anywhere near actually using a db for anything above simple select, insert, update, and delete statements.
Union joins, table field grouping/aggregates (sum, avg, stddev, etc), sub-queries; keywords like 'in' and 'between'; are all beyond the capabilities of ARS.
