Question : DROP TABLE IF EXISTS tblName

Hello, im trying to get this command to work in access....

What is the equivlent to this command?

I am using MySQL as my main database, however I want to become more universal and allow my users to use MSAccess also.

Answer : DROP TABLE IF EXISTS tblName

Jet has no control of flow execution in its SQL syntax.
It executes a single command.
So there's no ability to check *IF* a table exists and *THEN* execute it - as that would be more than one statement.

Jet is good at what it's intended for - but is in no way intended to perform conditional statements.
(Some VBA integration makes certain data statements checkable - but not DDL).
It's entirely appropriate with Jet to do such handling in the executing code (as Scott - LSMConsulting - suggested).

Hence it's important to remember the distinction.  You're talking about using a *Jet* mdb as your data source. Not Access - which is database application development too quite at home using Jet, mySQL, MS-SQL etc as it's data source - just like VB.NET is.
Jet has limitations - and has made no attempt to stretch beyond them (MS offer SQL Server for that after all :-)
