This is valid SQL.
What's the error message?|||declare @.UserID uniqueidentifier
SET @.UserID = @.@.ROWCOUNT
SELECT @.UserID
this will throw an error yes, assuming your @.UserID is an int this
should work
What I do not understand is how userid and rowcount have anything in
common?
maybe you are looking for one of these 4?
select user_id(),suser_sid(),suser_sname(),user
_name()

rcise, so i dont have full code.

|||Unless you provide more SQL code we can only say that this is valid SQL
so far.
HTH, Jens Suessmeyer.|||Just as one of the posters mentioned before - the only flaw is the assignmen
t
of an integer value to the variable of an incompatible data type
(uniqueidentifier).
Is that it? Then, change the declaration of UserID and use a compatible data
type (any numeric type or a character type).

it is said that to complete you mustnt have mssql knowledge...

|||Exactly what is it that you want from us? The code executes fine, as already
have been posted here,
provided you declare the @.UserID variable first. Here is proof:
DECLARE @.UserID int
SET @.UserID = @.@.ROWCOUNT
Execute above against SQL Server and you will see no errors.
But if you ask if there is a "mistake", we can't answer that. Is it a mistak
e to drink petrol? Well,
it is possible. And since we know about the semantics (we all know a bit abo
ut the human physiology)
we can say that it is probably it is a mistake. But you have provided us wit
h no semantics at all.
So all we can say that it is possible to execute the code with no errors. Yo
u have also been given
proof of it.

the result?
what troubles such code could cause?
thanks.
