Teradata: [Teradata Database] [3932] Only an ET or null statement is legal after a DDL Statement."

Hi I have two simple queries on is 

 

Create a temp table vt_nm;

 

and the other one is to select data from the temp table vt_nm

 

I saw the solution for the above issue in Teradata community but that did not work. 

 

I cannot run DDL and DML statement together?

 

Then how am I suppose to run the query?

 

Any help or suggestion is really appreciated.

@cpai1,

Do you write the SQL query in optional textbox during the process that you import data from Teradata to Power BI Desktop?

If so, "Create a temp table vt_nm" is a DDL statement, it is not possible to run DDL statement in Power BI,  please write "SELECT * FROM fixedTable" in desktop query box to import Teradata data.
