[RESOLVED] table exist or not

I am Working on SQL and I want to check if table exist in a database or not.
and also how can i check is specific field exist in table or not
Help plz

I am assuming you are using SQL Server.

To check a Table

PHP Code:

---

Select count([NAME]) From SYSOBJECTS Where [NAME] = 'myTABLENAME' 


---

To check if a field exists in a Table

PHP Code:

---

Select Count(SYSCOLUMNS.[NAME]) From SYSCOLUMNS Inner Join SYSOBJECTS On SYSCOLUMNS.ID = SYSOBJECTS.ID Where SYSOBJECTS.[NAME] = 'myTableName' And SYSCOLUMNS.[NAME] = 'ColumnName'

Thanx :)
