different from the usual in such cases vague "incorrect syntax" messages (like "expected something between A and B"). | |
In 6.1 and beyond with the addition User Defined Types the expression length(..) could be a function of a constructor method of a UDT. Problem
is that it did not match a built in function or UDF or UDM. So it guessed at that it was a nonexistent name of a constructor method. It really
can't tell which it is at that point.
