I am using the following code to check if the temporary table exists and drop the table if it exists before creating again. It works fine as long as I don\'t change the colu
pmac72 is using GO to break down the query into batches and using an ALTER.
You appear to be running the same batch but running it twice after changing it: DROP... CREATE... edit... DROP... CREATE..
Perhaps post your exact code so we can see what is going on.
