SQL Server TRY CATCH FINALLY

Question

I have a scenario where I need something similar to

.NET's try-catch-finally block.

On my try I will

CREATE a #temp table

,

INSERT

data to it & process other data sets based on

#temp

.

On

CATCH

then

RAISERROR

.
Is it possible to have a

FINALLY

block to

DROP #temp

?
Below is the pseudo code:

BEGIN TRY

CREATE TABLE #temp

(

   --columns

)

--Process data with other data sets

END TRY

BEGIN CATCH

EXECUTE usp_getErrorMessage

END CATCH

BEGIN FINALLY

DROP TABLE #temp

END FINALLY

Answer 1

Instead of creating a table you could just declare a table variable (which will automatically go away when the query ends).

BEGIN TRY
DECLARE @temp TABLE
(
    --columns
)
--do stuff
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
--do other stuff
END CATCH
