I have an sql statement like so:

with tbl as (select * from vwPunches v,tbltclocs l
where v.clockname = l.clockname and location = 'GARAGE'
and srtDate between '2012-06-06' and '2012-06-21') ,
ins as (select * from tbl where strinout='IN'),
outs as (select * from tbl where strinout='OUT')
select .....

The vwPunches view and the tbltcdocs table both have an ID column. In the SQL select statement that uses the ins and outs table I select the ID columns like so:

ins.id, outs.id

but the statement issues an SQL0203 error: "Name ID is ambiguous." At first I thought: It CAN'T be. I qualified the column name. But as I thought about it further I realized that it was the CTE that was causing the problem.

Is the only fix to name the columns in the CTE rather than using * or is there some clever way to refer to the column within the CTE that is qualified?
