Hi,

our parser allows the into clause only between the target list and the
from clause. While this is surely the was I usually use that clause,
others dbms are different. Informix e.g. allows it also as the very last
clause after the having clause.

Is there a reason (standard?) why we don't allow that, or shall I go
ahead and commit a parser change to allow this order?

Michael
