SQL Expressions
Expressions can appear in SQL statements and clauses.
Syntax for many statements and expressions includes the term Expression, or a term for a specific kind of
expression such as TableSubquery. Expressions are allowed in these specified places within statements.
Some locations allow only a specific type of expression or one with a specific property.
If not otherwise specified, an expression is permitted anywhere the word Expression appears in the syntax. This
includes:
• ORDER BY Clause
• SelectExpression
• UPDATE
• VALUES Expression
• WHERE Clause
Of course, many other statements include these elements as building blocks, and so allow expressions as part of
these elements.
The following sections list all the possible SQL expressions and indicate where the expressions are allowed.
