Reserved Words

The following words are reserved words in SQL. Texis makes use of many of them, and future versions may make use of others. These words should not be used as ordinary identifiers in forming names.

Allowances will be made in future versions of Texis so that the words may be used as delimited identifiers if deemed vital, by enclosing them between double quotation marks.
