How can I do the same thing for a temporary table, which exists in tempdb? I work with SQLserver 7.0 and Windows NT 4.0."Alex,My favorite method is to use something like the following:IF object_id("tempdb..foo") is not nullBEGIN --stuff to do if table exists --object_id returns a non-null value if the object existsENDhope this helps, Sean |
