Not really, they just cost money. For instance: <http://webstore.ansi.org/RecordDetail.aspx?sku=INCITS%2fISO%2fIEC+9075-1-2008> That's part 1 and costs US$30. For a good grasp of SQL you need most of the first 11 parts. Part 11, for instance costs US$321.00. Consequently nobody buys them. And consequently nobody cares what they say. > Pretty consistent syntax across vendors, and not totally outlandish As was clear from my post, I was referring to SQL standards. What various implementation vendors choose to do is up to them. But the multi-spec syntax referred to in the OP is not in any SQL standard I've seen.
