SQL & PL/SQL :: ORA-00923 - Difference Between 9i And 10g

I encountered this problem when we recently migrated to 10g. The table nametab has two columns roll(number datatype) and name(varchar2(10) datatype).Following are the queries used and I have deliberately not given space between the "select" clause and the "from" clause.

In 9i
SELECT name,1FROM nametab where rownum < 2
NAME 1
---------- ----------
Bharath 1

Same query in 10g
SELECT name,1FROM nametab where rownum < 2
ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected

Here, I have interchanged the select columns.

In 9i
SELECT 1,nameFROM nametab where rownum < 2
ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected

In 10g
SELECT 1,nameFROM nametab where rownum < 2
ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected
