SQL: Windowed functions can only appear in the SELECT or ORDER BY clauses

Use a CTE. Problem could occur in
WITH myCTE AS
(
SELECT WO, QuoteNo, EntryNo = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY QuoteNo ORDER BY WO)
FROM dbo.Orders2006
WHERE QuoteNo IS NOT NULL
)
UPDATE dbo.Orders2006
SET EntryNo = myCTE.EntryNo
FROM dbo.Orders2006
INNER JOIN myCTE ON myCTE.WO = dbo.Orders2006.WO
