I am getting a failed error message with this code and i don't understand why.


DECLARE @YourTAble Table (AccountID INT)


Insert INTO @YourTable 
SELECT 8003 UNION ALL 
SELECT 8015 UNION ALL 
SELECT 5033 UNION ALL 
SELECT 5033 UNION ALL 
SELECT 2115 UNION ALL 
SELECT 2678


SELECT  AccountID, Ranking =(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM @yourtable as YT  WHERE YT.AccountID > @yourtable.AccountID)+ 1
FROM @YourTable
ORDER BY (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM @YourTable YT WHERE YT.AccountID > @YourTable.AccountID) + 1

You can't use @yourtable.AccountID. You must use an alias instead.
