The best concise text I found was written by Chris Date, and gives a good 
breakdown of syntax and logic without a single wasted word.  Not VdB 
specific (nor is SQL) but it doesn't take long in Online Help to 
determine what is implemented for local SQL.

I don't see any point in restricting to VdB Local SQL - VdB will use 
whatever syntax is available on the database engine, so if you attach to 
Oracle you get a different implementation to when you attach to 
Interbase or use the local BDE implementation.
