    Hi,

    How do we ignore an error in T-SQL?

    For e.g.:- The following code throw an error once the @lCounter reach at 15 and will come out. Requirement is it should go till 1000. Even if there are errors in between.

    DECLARE @lCounter SMALLINT

    DECLARE @lError SMALLINT

    SET @lCounter = 0

    WHILE (@lCounter <= 1000 )

    BEGIN

    SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR, GETDATE(), @lCounter)

    SET @lCounter = @lCounter + 1

    END

    Thanks in advance

    You can't ignore an error. You can however handle it using Try/Catch.

    I hope your code is just for an example of how to force an error because a loop is not very efficient in sql.
