ORACLE "SQL-92 compliant" NO WAY

I don't know if anyone has picked up on this but I confess I have not been reading the news groups for a while so sorry if its common knowledge.

Oracle say that they provide "conformance with the ANSI X3.135-1992/ISO 9075-1992 standard" however, they are wrong!!!!!!!

Their OUTER JOIN syntax is different from everybody else's. So who gave them the sticker to say they were?

And guess what, it's NOT fixed in Oracle 8. Received on Thu Oct 15 1998 - 00:00:00 CDT
