SQL Server : sorting DESC results in "Invalid column name" error-CodePudding

I have a table MOVIE with a column Desc which stands for description.

I tried to sort by this column:

SELECT 
    * ,
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY [Desc] ASC) AS RowData
FROM 
    (SELECT
         UID,
         Title,
         [Desc] AS '[Desc]'
     FROM 
         MOVIE) AS RowTable

I get this error

Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
Invalid column name 'Desc'

Anyone keen to help?

Thank you.

Try this:

SELECT 
    * ,
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY [Desc] ASC) AS RowData
FROM 
(
    SELECT
        UID,
        Title,
        [Desc] AS [Desc]
    FROM 
        MOVIE
) As RowTable

CodePudding user response：

My suggestion is change The column name of Desc. either write description or another name.

beacuse IN SQL

The DESC command is used to sort the data returned in descending order
