Hi Folks,
I want to perform a audit on the result of the following statement

DECLARE @row_cnt int
DELETE FROM table_a --I want to capture number of rows deleted
IF @@ERROR=0
SELECT 'Number of Rows Deleted :'+convert(varchar,@row_cnt)

Where will i set the variable @row_cnt=@@ROWCOUNT, i cannot do it inside the IF because the value of @@rowcount will be reset. In a nut shell, if the delete operation succeeds i want to report the number of rows deleted.

DECLARE @rowcount int, @error int
DELETE FROM table_a --I want to capture number of rows deleted
select @error = @@error, @rowcount = @@rowcount
IF @error=0
SELECT 'Number of Rows Deleted :'+convert(varchar,@rowcount)

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