with clause for subquery factoring

[web_poster03]

Hi,

The following does not return result:

with free_space_by_tablespace as
( select sum(bytes)/1024 Kbytes_free,
max(bytes)/1024 largest,
tablespace_name
from sys.dba_free_space
group by tablespace_name
select * from free_space_by_tablespace ;

BUT this does:
select * from (with free_space_by_tablespace as
( select sum(bytes)/1024 Kbytes_free,
max(bytes)/1024 largest,
tablespace_name
from sys.dba_free_space
group by tablespace_name
select * from free_space_by_tablespace
)
What is wrong with my query?

This occurs in Sql/plus and SQL navigator v4.4.5. In MS ACCESS pass
through query, I also got the no records returned warning.

Is it due to the version problem on my client software? My Oracle
server is 9.2 and above

Thanks for any points on this.

Missing parenthesis from first version?

Thanks Mark.

After I upgrade my oracle client from 8.1.17 to 9.2 then it works.
Hope this is useful for other person
