It might be getting a little bit OT, but I searched and couldn't find the
right definition of Jet SQL.  

Microsoft claims it's close enough to the standard (though nowhere does it
say in conforms to any standard).

Devguru came in first on Google says... "Jet SQL has certain limitations
compared to the other versions of SQL."

I guess you can spin it either way, I've worked with Access years ago, so I
don't know if they started fully conforming to SQL standards now, but back
when I was working with it (Access 97, and a little Access 2000) a lot of
standards were not followed.  I can't recall what exactly at the moment, but
if needed it definitelly wouldn't be hard to find:-)

If I remember correctly Jet SQL was described by Microsoft as being an 
'extended subset of the ANSI SQL Standard'
