I have a query that is returning an error with the maximum levels of recursion exceeded. 

I know how to fix this by adding `OPTION (maxrecursion 0)` to the query however, I have tried adding this at various places in the query and I cant find where to put it where the syntax is valid.

Can anyone give me any pointers as to where in my view the query hint needs to be inserted?

```

```

as suggested I have added **OPTION (maxrecursion 0)** to just above the last GO statement, however when within the create view statement it is giving a syntax error. If I run the query on its own, outside of a create view statement it works
