Can anybody help me find my syntax error in the code below?

 

Thanks!

 

proc sql;
create table test3 as
select distinct bb.* ,
from ((select mmcor_cd, srv_type_cd, srv_dt, CLAIM_LINE_NUM, claim_class_cd, max(claim_line_num) as max_claim from claim_trans group by tcn)) 
aa, claim_ppv bb 
where aa.tcn = bb.tcn and bb.claim_line_num = aa.max_claim
order by tcn, claim_line_num ;
quit;
