SQL语法错误-预期（或如

Question

I am trying to write this SQL code:

create table Users
{
    UserID int primary key identity(200,1),
    FirstName varchar(20) not null,
    LastName varchar(20) not null,
    BirthDate dateTime not null,
    HomeTown varchar(30),
    WorkPlace varchar(40),
    Email not null
}

The problem is that next the { symbol, I get the error:

Incorrect syntax near '{'.

When my mouse over the sign it adds:

Expecting '(' or AS

In addition, I also get an error on the values that are in the bracket

Incorrect syntax near '20'. Expecting '(' or Select".

The thing is that I have another SQL document (that I didn't write) and the same syntax work there! Why is that and how can I solve it?

Answer 1

You need brackets not braces - http://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_create_table.asp Also a data type for email

Ie

create table Users
(
UserID int primary key identity(200,1),
FirstName varchar(20) not null,
LastName varchar(20) not null,
BirthDate dateTime not null,
HomeTown varchar(30),
WorkPlace varchar(40),
Email varchar(40) not null
)

Answer 2

You have not specified the datatype for Email columnn. Use ()instead of {}.

Answer 3

Your sql statement should look like the following one, first change the {} to () then added the datatype to your email column

create table Users (
UserID int primary key identity(200,1),
FirstName varchar(20) not null,
LastName varchar(20) not null,
BirthDate dateTime not null,
HomeTown varchar(30),
WorkPlace varchar(40),
[Email] varchar(255) not null
)
