With that in place it works. But, this forces me to be backward compliant. If MS decided to adapt its SQL engine to a new standard then I really want to know what I should adapt on it to make it standard to the native SQL support of the product. I don't want to start added backward compliant command where it occurs. I want to resolve it once and for all. :)
