I don't believe there's a way to make the server itself accept that. IIRC, past discussions usually have bogged down into questions of whether to support the syntax since it doesn't appear to be valid SQL and if so what semantics to give cases where the tablename doesn't match. I'm not sure if there's any way to get the ODBC driver to do something about it, however. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
