I am running SQL Server Best Practices on a SQL 2000
database and it is recommending me to change the temp
tables inside SPs to table variables.
I had read already in other places to use table variables
over temp tables. I also know I can't create indexes as
I can on temp tables. Instead I'll have to create either
a primary key and/or a unique index on a table variable.
One question I have is let's say I will be putting thousands
of records in a temp table, should i still choose a table
variable over a temp table for this? Or is there a
recommended limit where if I have to store certain
number of records then it's better to store them in
a temp table rather than a table variable? Or number
of records is not the factor to decide whether to use
temp tables or table variables?
I would like to know when it's ideal or best to use
temp tables instead of table variables and vice versa.
Thank you
