You are looking for something like an "UPSERT" statement ie. "Update if present else insert" - As far as i know there isn't anything which is close to what you are looking for(using SQL) "Drop if present else Create" - If you were to use the BTEQ client then you could do something like :

DROP TABLE
.IF ERRORCODE = 3807 then Create table .....

3807 is error code returned by "Drop table " statement if a table/view/trigger/procedure is not present.
