I'm not sure that ANSI would bother with obsoleted versions of
standards. What I tend to use is the final draft version of SQL92,
mainly because it's available in plain text that I can grep (PDF is not
a user-friendly format IMHO). The draft version is available for free
on the net --- I've forgotten exactly where, but if you trawl the list
archives you will find a URL. SQL99 is available in the same way, btw.
But I like SQL92 because it's much smaller and more readable.
