Whoops. I'm currently using SQL Server which does allow these types of things and so I thought|assumed that Sybase did too.

A lesson to all you young Monks out there - this is what happens when you don't test your code (or look in the book to make sure it'll work).

Going from Sybase to Oracle and now to SQL Server has left me confused on who allows what. I guess I could stay with just the 'core' bits, but that takes all the fun out of things.
