You better fasten you seatbelt! SQL Server has syntax!

>I've got an upcoming project that is heavily SQL Server. I know that the SQL commands are "supposed" to be standard, but every vendor has their own extensions. Back in the eighties, I worked with Oracle and Informix, and I know enough that whatever it is I wanted to do in Oracle seemed better suited for the Informix extensions, and vice versa.

Likewise, what am I going to find out about in SQL Server that you can't do in VFP? Do any of you have any words of wisdom on the differences between the SQL dialects?
