hai all
i'm trying to use LEAD and LAG functions but i can't.
i have one table called a(a number b number);
the data in this is
(1,2)(2,3)(3,4)(6,7)(7,8)
i wrote one query as
select a,b,lag(a,1,0)over(order by a) "next" from a;
but this is giving error as "no from----"
wat i want actually is to find the gaps in b/w a and b .
the same case happens with LEAD,PARTITION,and max all analytical funs but i'm using oracle 8i only..plz tell me my mistake soon

What is the error message and which version do you use?
If I'm not wrong this function is introduced on Oracle 8.1.6 Version.
I'm using the following version and this supports this.
##
Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.4.0 - Production
You can query this from v$version.
##
Good Luck.

In addition to being introduced in Oracle 8.1.6, the analytic functions like lead and lag also required the Enterprise Edition, not the Personal Edition or 8iLite, even though the documentation may incorrectly state otherwise.
