Here's a trick to easily check if the schema already exists, and then create it, in it's own batch, to avoid the error message of trying to create a schema when it's not the only command in a batch.
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT schema_name FROM information_schema.schemata WHERE schema_name = 'newSchemaName' ) BEGIN EXEC sp_executesql N'CREATE SCHEMA NewSchemaName;'; END If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
