        No, since they're saying the same thing. Actually, this explanation  
is worse, since it says that Firebird uses the 'as' expression as an  
identifier, and not a column alias. If they can use it in a GROUP BY  
to refer back to the original expression, there is no reason (other  
than they didn't implement it) that they couldn't provide the exact  
same behavior in HAVING.

        If you cannot use the names of derived columns in a HAVING, then what  
is the difference between HAVING and WHERE?
