>The DESC is a subclause of the ORDER BY clause in the SELECT-SQL statement.

Hey Sergey!
here is the statement. I wouldn't think that "Process.desc" could cause the error, but "Desc" is a reserved word... I don't generally watch out for reserved words.. but I will in the future! Thanks!

SELECT Linelist.line_no, Linelist.service, Process.process_id,;
Process.temp, Process.density, Process.desc;
FROM linelist LEFT OUTER JOIN process ;
ON Linelist.line_no = Process.process_id;
ORDER BY Linelist.line_no
