    BTW, the best way to check for the existance of a temporary table in your current session is:

    IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#YourTempTable') IS NOT NULL

    Note that in SQL Server thru version 2008R2, temp tables are created with a positive object_id value, so you might want to use:

    IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#YourTempTable') > 0

    You can test <> 0

    I always use IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#YourTempTable') <> 0 😀
