 It seems that you can't get anything from there:

The SQL-92 Standard is copyright by both ISO and ANSI.  The SQL-3
draft documents contain the SQL-92 standard.

ISO policies restrict electronic distribution of draft documents to
the participants in the standardization process.

ANSI X3H2 (the US SQL standards committee) is of the opinion that the
drafts need to be widly available to enhance review, comment, etc.

However, until the ISO policies change, the draft documents are likely
to remain unavailable electronically.

The documents at gatekeeper.dec.com are at least 9 months out of date.
They are left over from when the SQL editor (Jim Melton) worked for
Digital.

For more information on the SQL standards (but not the current draft
documents -- sorry), check out the SQL Standards home page at:

do you know, where to order these documents, preferable on CD-ROM?

Thank you,

In the US, the current version the the drafts should be available from
ANSI at:

    American National Standards Institute
    1430 Broadway
    New York, NY 10018
    USA
    Phone (sales): +1.212.642.4900

They should also be available from ISO in Switzerland, but I don't
have any contact information there.  ISO does have a Web page at:

	http://www.iso.ch

I don't think anything is available on cd-rom.
