Keyword "Over"

I've seen documentation for SQL Server that describes that 'over' is a reser
ved keyword. However, I can't find any examples, explanations, descriptions
, etc. for what this keyword does. Is this just a "reserverd for future use
" type of thing. Or, is th
ere some functionality associated with the keyword 'over'. If the latter, c
an someone point me in the right direction for finding more info.
thanks!

It will be a keyword in the next version. Itzik Ben-Gan will be writing
about it very soon!

MS takes the proactive stance and documents keywords that might not be
keywords in the current version of SQL Server but are keywords in ANSI SQL.
Just in case MS decides to implement some language feature of the ANSI SQL
language in an upcoming release.
