| I declare a table variable as declare @t table(id int, first_value int, second_value int) In some middle steps, I insert some rows for that table var, and use TRUNCATE TABLE @t statement to empty it for faster performance. But I fail with error like "Incorrect syntax near '@t' " and I must use DELETE FROM @t statement instead.I am using SQL server 2000 and open the book online about "truncate" and "table variables", I find no words about the relations of TRUNCATE and table variables.Any idea would be appreciated.Thanks in advance.johnsql |

you can't use truncate table on table variable. use DELETE
