ROW_NUMBER() is not working

When I'm trying to use ROW_NUMBER() it seems that MySql is not reading it properly (the line is black not blue) hence

it is not working. It has to do with the MySQL version? And how can I fix that?


Error Code: 1064. You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server

version for the right syntax to use near '() AS row_num FROM  salaries' at line 3.


I'm eagerly awaiting your response,

Best regards,

Dhruv

Hi Dhruv!


Thanks for reaching out.


1) Can you please confirm you have written no query on row 1, ending without using a

statement terminator ; at the end ?


2) If that's not the case, please consider we were referring to version MySQL 8.0 or above.
Currently, you seem to be using a 5.7 version. Please update.

Hope this helps but please feel free to get back to us should you need further assistance.
Thank you!

Kind regards,
Martin
