This is just how God punishes people for using proprietary code :)
Since this is MS-only
syntax, they can do anything they wish from release to release. Ergo,
you are screwed and live at their whim without recourse to a

Drop an email to the publisher, so they can fix it in the book and use
the Standard. MAX() syntax you provided. Since it is Standard SQL, MS
has to keep it the same from release to release.
