validate if table exists while selecting and inserting SQL Server -
hello have dynamic query like
set @template = 'select x x,... temporaltable from' + @table_name
then execute it
exec (@template)
- how validate if
temporaltable
exists, if so, drop it?
use information schema or sp_help
function.
i prefer information schema since it's sql ansi , can port code other databases:
select count(1) information_schema.tables table_name = 'temporaltable';
sys.tables
sqlserver specific option similar inforamtion schema can explore.
