Problem with ORDER BY in UPDATE

I have updateable SQL statment on one table(ROWID included) with ORDER BY clause. In this situation I get error message "missing right parenthesis" ORA-907. I couldn't make any changes in this type of query. Why?

Hi !

It is because, NCOCI8 builds UPDATE / DELETE / INSERT SQL's as follows. For example:
UPDATE (<original query> SET ... WHERE ...
Oracle prior 8.1.6 is not support such syntax. To overcome this limitation, you should use TOCIUpdateSQL.
