SELECTing into temp tables

    Hi all

    Does anyone know if it is possible that when doing a "SELECT ...  INTO #temptable FROM ... " something might happen (such as a deadlock) resulting in the temp table being created, but empty when it otherwise wouldn't be?

    Thanks

    Bad criteria.  Empty source table.  Some error that allowed the creation of the table but no data to transfer.  There are a ton of reasons but can't tell because not all the code has been posted nor do we know the status of your source data, etc.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
