I've got some scripts which run against 8.1.7, but fail against 8.0.3. I need to get them working against 8.0.3. Basically the following query summarises my problem (I know it's a silly example):
select (select 'XXXX' from dual) AS YYYY from dual;
Anyone got any idea how/what I can change the statement to get it to run against 8.0.3, bearing in mind I need to dynamically create my select statements like this and I won't be using dual at all. e.g.
select (select DynamicColumn from ColumnNames WHERE ID = 3) AS ColumnName from MyData;

8.03 simply does not support that syntax. You will need to either move those down into the WHERE clause or write functions for each of the lookups.
