Answer 1

You code looks good.
Are you facing any issues? Please explain.
You can even try with truncate table...
IF (OBJECT_ID('organTable', 'U') IS NOT NULL)
BEGIN
PRINT 'Table Exists'
--DELETE FROM organTable;
Truncate Table OrganTable
END
Sir, first of all thanks for reply & giving me your valuable time,
i have learned some of the issues or dependencies with Truncate query, which are as follows -
- Are referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint. (You can truncate a table that has a foreign key that references itself.)
- Participate in an indexed view.
- Are published by using transactional replication or merge replication
because my tables exist some of above restrictions, please guide, is it right to use the truncate?
