For SQL 92, that's not supported syntax.

Probably not. It's non-standard in the old spec, I don't know about the new one. If it got in the newest spec then it could probably get committed pretty easily. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
