'Group' or an identifier expected

The Into portion of a Group By or Group Join clause does not include the Group keyword. You must include the Group keyword in the Into clause of a Group By or Group Join clause to identify the variable name to use for the grouped results. This can be either a name you specify or the keyword Group.
