Could you provide a reference (I can't find it in the Firebird 2.5 language reference), because if that is the case, that is either an error or a statement taken out of context. Firebird is not a strict implementation of SQL-92, but if we consider SQL features, we usually try to follow the SQL standard specification for that feature. > This is not to say that Firebird-SQL does not go beyond the SQL-92 > Standard but it is somewhat limited in this respect when compared to the > other major SQL implementation for which I have used them all with the > exception of of IBM's DB2... Could you provide explicit examples of what you're missing, so that we can consider improvements to Firebird's dialect. Mark -- Mark Rotteveel
