Question

I am getting this error when using a WITH clause

Incorrect syntax near the keyword ‘with’. If this statement is a
common table expression, an xmlnamespaces clause or a change tracking
context clause, the previous statement must be terminated with a
semicolon.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure ViewComplaintbyProfile, Line 29
Incorrect syntax near ‘,’.

Here is my Procedure

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ViewComplaintbyProfile]

(   @ID int


)

AS
BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON
WITH
one as
     (Select sno = ROW_NUMBER()OVER (order by complaint_id), Complaint_Id, ComplainantName,ComplaintType_id, complaintProfileId,ComplainantProfileId,Description,

Answer 1

The error message already tells you what to do:

…. the previous statement must be terminated with a semicolon.

Try putting the WITH statement into a block of its own by prepending it by a semicolon:

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ViewComplaintbyProfile]

(   @ID int


)

AS
BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON

; WITH one AS ......
  .........
