It can also be caused by using reserved words in your table or field names and not surrounding them with []. Something like redgate sql prompt is brilliant for avoiding having to manually type these (it even auto-completes joins based on foreign keys), but isn't free. SQL server 2008 supports intellisense out of the box, although it isn't quite as complete as the redgate version. share|improve this answer a

For example: SELECT p.Name, j.Job, s.Salary FROM PeopleTable p, JobTable j LEFT JOIN SalaryTable s ON s.PeopleID=p.PeopleID AND s.JobID=j.JobID However, the above would give this error: SQL Error: The multi-part identifier "p.PeopleID" could not be bound. It seems that the ON clause in a LEFT JOIN statement can only "see" the last table listed in the FROM http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1261419/sql-error-the-multi-part-identifier-tablename-columnname-could-not-be-bound list.

(the specificity of outer join conditions being one of the things that is significantly different between the two). –RBarryYoung Aug 11 '09 at 16:44 5 In any event, it's really not a good idea to mix them anyway. –RBarryYoung Aug 11 '09 at 16:44 Definitely second that! Choose one (preferably SQL-92) and stick with it!

SQL Server Error Messages - Msg 4104 - The multi-part identifier could not could not be bound. SQL Server Error Messages - Msg 4104 Error Message Server: Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The multi-part identifier could not be bound. Causes This error usually occurs when an alias is used when referencing a column in a SELECT statement and the alias used is not defined not be bound anywhere in the FROM clause of the SELECT statement. To illustrate, given the following table structure: CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Employee] ( [EmployeeID] INT [FullName] VARCHAR(100), [ManagerID] INT ) The following SELECT statement will generate the error: SELECT [Manager].[FullName] AS [ManagerName], [Emp].[EmployeeID], [Emp].[FullName] FROM [dbo].[Employee] [Emp] INNER JOIN [dbo].[Employee] [Mgr] ON [Emp].[ManagerID] = [Mgr].[EmployeeID] Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The multi-part identifier "Manager.FullName" could not be bound. The error is encountered because there is no [Manager] table or alias defined in the FROM clause. Another way of getting the error is when an alias has been assigned to a table referenced in the FROM clause of a statement and the table is used as a prefix of a column instead of using the alias. To illustrate, here’s another way of getting the error: SELECT [Employee].[EmployeeID], [Emp].[FullName] FROM [dbo].[Employee] [Emp] Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The multi-part identifier "Employee.EmployeeID" co
