Delete or Drop a table if it already exists - response (18) by koushiksaha83

Hi Dnoeth,
I tried using your code to in SQL assistance 12.0 but getting same error like others -
"Expected something between 'and'& 'table'.
 
Even after unchecking "Stop query execution if an SQL error occurs" I am getting the same error.
Below is the piece of code I am trying to execute. Pls help me to get rid of the syntax error.
select 1 from dbc.TablesV where database = d_temp_sas and table = 'ks_del_121_base_nov';
.if activitycount = 0 then GoTo ok
DROP TABLE ks_del_121_base_nov
.label ok
create table ks_del_121_base_nov as
(select * from mg_chck)
with data primary index(subscription_id);
