If Category has no posts display text

$catquery = new WP_Query( 'cat=2&posts_per_page=100&order=ASC' );

If have_posts {

while($catquery->have_posts()) : $catquery->the_post();
?>
<b><a href="https://artspacelansdowne.com/workshops/#<?php the_ID(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></b><?php the_meta(); ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

else

echo "There are no Workshops at this time.";

}

I get this error…

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ‘(‘ in /home/content/12/9195112/html/asl/wp-content/plugins/exec-php/includes/runtime.php(42) : eval()’d code on line 32

Is this the correct way to use this code?

<?php
$catquery = new WP_Query( 'cat=2&posts_per_page=100&order=ASC' );

If have_posts {

while($catquery->have_posts()) : $catquery->the_post();
?>
<b><a href="https://artspacelansdowne.com/workshops/#<?php the_ID(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></b><?php the_meta(); ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

else

echo "There are no Workshops at this time.";

}
<?php endwhile; ?>

Sorry you need to make the if statement syntax right ..I just was giving you an idea how to do what you want to do.

<?php
if ( have_posts() ) :
	while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
		// Your loop code
	endwhile;
else :
	echo wpautop( 'Sorry, no posts were found' );
endif;
?>

based on the reply by @radices, but using your exact initial code:

<?php
$catquery = new WP_Query( 'cat=2&posts_per_page=100&order=ASC' );

if($catquery->have_posts()) :

while($catquery->have_posts()) : $catquery->the_post();
?>
<b><a href="https://artspacelansdowne.com/workshops/#<?php the_ID(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></b><?php the_meta(); ?>

<?php endwhile; 

else:
  echo wpautop( 'There are no Workshops at this time.' );
endif;
?>

THANK YOU alchymyth!!!!
