Stored Procedure, 'incorrect syntax error'
- by jacksonSD
Attempting to figure out sp's, and I'm getting this error: "Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 5 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'Procedure'." the error seems to be on the if, but I can drop other existing tables with stored procedures the exact same way so I'm not clear on why this isn't working. can anyone shed some light?
Begin
Set nocount on
Begin Try
Create Procedure uspRecycle
as
if OBJECT_ID('Recycle') is not null
Drop Table Recycle
create table Recycle
(RecycleID integer
constraint PK_integer primary key,
RecycleType nchar(10) not null,
RecycleDescription nvarchar(100) null)
insert into Recycle
(RecycleID,RecycleType,RecycleDescription)
values ('1','Compost','Product is compostable, instructions included in packaging')
insert into Recycle
(RecycleID,RecycleType,RecycleDescription)
values ('2','Return','Product is returnable to company for 100% reuse')
insert into Recycle
(RecycleID,RecycleType,RecycleDescription)
values ('3','Scrap','Product is returnable and will be reclaimed and reprocessed')
insert into Recycle
(RecycleID,RecycleType,RecycleDescription)
values ('4','None','Product is not recycleable')
End Try
Begin Catch
DECLARE @ErrMsg nvarchar(4000);
SELECT @ErrMsg = ERROR_MESSAGE();
Throw 50001, @ErrMsg, 1;
End Catch
-- checking to see if table exists and is loaded:
If (Select count(*) from Recycle) >1
begin
Print 'Recycle table created and loaded '; Print getdate()
End
set nocount off
End
