AFAIK, "USER" is a reserved word in SQL - since SQL-92:

http://developer.mimer.com/validator/sql-reserved-words.tml

There are some online SQL validators which you may find useful, if you run into 
issues like this. The site above has 3 validators, which validate your syntax 
against the SQL standard, rather than trying to validate it against syntax 
specific to a certain product - ie., MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite. The address 
for the validators are:

SQL-92:
http://developer.mimer.com/validator/parser92/index.tml

SQL-99:
http://developer.mimer.com/validator/parser99/index.tml

SQL-2003:
http://developer.mimer.com/validator/parser200x/index.tml

I hope this helps!
