Hello!

What's the right structure after the phrase "there is nothing wrong"?

-There is nothing wrong doing this.

-There is nothing wrong in doing this.

-There is nothing wrong with doing this.

-There is nothing wrong to do this (I don't like this one!).

Thank you
W

-There is nothing wrong in doing this.
-There is nothing wrong with doing this.
These two are both OK. I prefer the second.

Maybe you'd use the first one more with "in followed by a verb" There's nothing wrong in using a computer in class".

And the second followed by a noun, noun phrase, pronoun. There's nothing wrong with the way you look. There's nothing wrong with it ( my car).

Am I right?
