Re: Re: DBI recipes

I'd like to point out that while most databases are mostly SQL-92 compliant, INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES is not implemented in Oracle 9.2.0.4 (the latest patch release, that I'm aware of).

I don't know if any other database implements this or not.

It's a fair point you make. Both Oracle and Microsoft continue to stretch the meaning of compliance. It is almost meaningless now but at this rate by 2020 it could simply mean that the product engineers know how to spell I-S-O.	[reply]
