Question

I am trying to create a database table when the page loads. I tried this code :

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection conn2 = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(@"connectionstring");

string user2 = Page.User.Identity.Name + "imgs";
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand ccmd = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("CREATE TABLE '" + user2 + "' (id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,img VARCHAR(225))", conn2);
conn2.Open();
ccmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
conn2.Close();

…but it doesn’t work for me. What am I doing wrong?

Also – How can I check if a table exists in the database? I’m using asp.net 3.5

Answer 1

Change this;

CREATE TABLE '" + user2 + "' 
(id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) 
PRIMARY KEY,img VARCHAR(225))

to

CREATE TABLE " + user2 + " 
(id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) 
PRIMARY KEY,img VARCHAR(225))
