Hi Team,

I need to insert data in TableA from below query and the Insert and Select should run as single statement , But I am getting error says 'Incorrect syntax near If' for below query.
What is wrong here?

Thanks in advance.

Insert into TableA (Col1, Col2, Col3, Col4)

IF Object_ID ('temp..#Temp') Is not Null
Drop Table #Temp
Create Table #Temp
(
 ColA Varchar (100),
 ColB Int
)

Insert into #Temp
Select ColA, ColB from TableB

Select Col1, Col2, Col3, Col4
From TableC C
Inner join #Temp T On C.Col1=T.ColB


What I have tried:

I tried using braces also , But did not work.

The SQL INSERT INTO statement has a very specific format: SQL INSERT INTO Statement[^] which you are not meeting - you have no VALUES supplied, just column names.

How do you expect me to have any idea what you are trying to INSERT from where?

I am trying to insert values from Table C, which joins from Temp table and It should insert into Table A. All this statements should run in 1 query. This is the requirement. Thanks.
