I used the SQL Server management studio on a table with Create Script to New and did minor changes. Give me an error ‘Incorrect syntax near ‘(” for the ‘(‘ after ‘WITH’

/* EventType Table Creation */  CREATE TABLE [EventType] (  [pkEventID]  [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,  [Description] [nvarchar](50) NOT NULL,  [BeginDate]  [datetime] NOT NULL,  [EndDate]  [datetime] NOT NULL,  [Comments]  [nvarchar](500) NOT NULL,  CONSTRAINT [PK_EventType] PRIMARY KEY   CLUSTERED   (  [pkEventID] ASC  )  WITH   (   PAD_INDEX = OFF,    STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF,    IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF,    ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON,    ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON  )   ON [PRIMARY] ) ON [PRIMARY] GO

  1. Which version of Microsoft SQL Server are you executing this CREATE TABLE statement against? According to documentation, MS SQL Server 2000 does not recognize the syntax for WITH (...index options...). That syntax is supported in MS SQL Server 2005 and later.

    Even if you use SQL Managment Studio 2005, you may be connecting to MS SQL Server 2000. To verify the version, try this query:

    SELECT  SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'),    SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'),    SERVERPROPERTY ('edition');

    MS SQL Server 2000’s productversion is 8.x.

    MS SQL Server 2005’s productversion is 9.x.

    MS SQL Server 2008’s productversion is 10.x.
