Description
Any time I attempt to download or even copy and paste the code in to SSMS I end up with an error.
Below is the error message I receive. I am new to this and do not know how to fix this and it appears that I would have to do so because of frequent syntax errors. What do I do now?
Error Message:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near '.'.
Msg 3702, Level 16, State 4, Line 13
