The difference between "WITH clause" and derived tables (inline views)

511303Apr 9 2008 — edited Apr 9 2008
What's the difference between (1) the WITH clause and (2) inline views (derived tables) following the FROM clause in SELECT statement? Seems that they are doing the same job.

What can we do with the WITH subquery factoring clause that we cannot do with derived tables and vice versa?

Thanks.
