Alter table add multiple columns ms sql


Can anyone tell me where is the mistake in the following query

ALTER TABLE Countries
ADD ( 
HasPhotoInReadyStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInWorkStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInMaterialStorage bit,
 HasText  bit);

ALTER TABLE Regions
ADD ( HasPhotoInReadyStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInWorkStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInMaterialStorage bit
 HasText  bit);

ALTER TABLE Provinces
ADD ( HasPhotoInReadyStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInWorkStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInMaterialStorage bit
 HasText  bit);


ALTER TABLE Cities
ADD ( HasPhotoInReadyStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInWorkStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInMaterialStorage bit
 HasText  bit);

Alter table Hotels
Add 
{
 HasPhotoInReadyStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInWorkStorage  bit,
 HasPhotoInMaterialStorage bit,
 HasHotelPhotoInReadyStorage  bit,
 HasHotelPhotoInWorkStorage  bit,
 HasHotelPhotoInMaterialStorage bit,
 HasReporterData  bit,
 HasMovieInReadyStorage  bit,
 HasMovieInWorkStorage  bit,
 HasMovieInMaterialStorage bit
};

I get the following errors:

Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
Incorrect syntax near '('.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 9
Incorrect syntax near '('.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 15
Incorrect syntax near '('.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 22
Incorrect syntax near '('.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 29
Incorrect syntax near '{'.

Solution

  • Take out the parentheses and the curly braces, neither are required when adding columns.
