hi
iam dropping a temp table , what i have to do is to check that if tyable exist then drop it. when I am running this command I dont have any error but the when still exists. Can some one help me. I cant use 'Use tempdb' thing

if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[##temptab1]')
and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsTable') = 1)
drop Table[dbo].[##temptab1]

Thanks in advance

if exists (select * from tempdb.dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'tempdb.[dbo].[##temptab1]')

But if other connections that use it are still open it won't drop.

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
