Hi all,
I am new in SQL, so my problem is trivial. I try edit table:

aalter TABLE [dbo].[pasta](
[derectives] [int] NULL,
[sample] [nchar](20) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[db] [real] NULL,
[surename] [nchar](10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,
[result] AS ([sample]+[surename])
[capor] as ([derectives]*10)
) ON [PRIMARY]

And all the time get error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near '('.

Could you advise that is wrong???

Change ALTER to CREATE. This syntax is incorrect for altering a table.

if you want to alter table you should be using ALTER TABLE...ADD
or ALTER TABLE...ALTER COLUMN based on your requirement
