| Temp tables are created in tempdbyou can check whether it exists and drop it if it does with this.IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..<name of temp table>') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE <name of temp table>Temp tables (1 #) are local to your scope. That means that if they are created inside a sp they are only available to that stored proc (and any objects it calls)Hope this helps.-------------Charlie |
