Question

I”m getting an error somewhere around PRIMARY KEY but can’t figure out what exactly it is, can someone take a look?

CREATE TABLE `reports` (

    `key`                   INT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT, 
    `role`                  VARCHAR(70), 
    `region`                VARCHAR(70),
    `inspection_type`       VARCHAR(70),
    `inspection_number`     VARCHAR(70),
    `customer_number`       VARCHAR(70),

    `report_date`           DATE DEFAULT NULL,  



    `order_date`            DATE DEFAULT NULL,  


    `customer`              VARCHAR(70),
    `customer_division`     VARCHAR(70),
    `location`              VARCHAR(70),
    `memo`                  VARCHAR(255),       
    `billingkey`            VARCHAR(70),

    PRIMARY KEY(key)

) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=UTF8;

Enclose key in backquotes. It is a MySQL reserved keyword.

PRIMARY KEY(`key`)
