I am a new SQL user and I have created my code but when I execute it I get this error :

Msg 2714, Level 16, State 6, Line 1
There is already an object named 'Job_Title' in the database.

I do not understand why I keep getting this same error.
Here is my code:

CREATE TABLE Job_Title
(
Job_ID			int			NOT NULL
	PRIMARY KEY(Job_ID),
EEO1_Class		varchar(20)	NOT NULL,
Job_Title		varchar(40) NOT NULL,
Job_Descrip		varchar(100)NOT NULL,
Status			varchar(10)	NOT NULL
)

CREATE TABLE Employee
(
Emp_ID			int			NOT NULL
	PRIMARY KEY(Emp_ID),
Last_Name		varchar(50) NOT NULL,
First_Name		varchar(50)	NOT NULL,
Address			varchar(50)	NOT NULL,
City			varchar(25)	NOT NULL,
State			varchar(20)	NOT NULL,
Phone_AC		char(3)		NOT NULL,
Phone_Num		char(7)		NOT NULL,
Ssn				char(9)		NOT NULL,
Hire_Date		datetime	NOT NULL,
Salary			numeric(6,2)	NOT NULL,
Gender			varchar(6)	NOT NULL,
Birthday		datetime	NOT NULL,
Job_ID			int	FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES Job_Title (Job_ID)
)

And a few examples of my INSERT statements:

INSERT INTO Employee (Emp_ID,Last_Name,First_Name,Address,City,State,Phone_AC,
	Phone_Num,Ssn,Hire_Date,Salary,Gender,Birthday,Job_ID)
VALUES (62683,'Edelman','Glenn','175 Bishop Lane','La Jolla','California',619,555-0199,112333445,
	10/07/2003,11.25,'male',11/02/1981,004)


INSERT INTO Job_Title (Job_ID,EEO1_Class,Job_Title,Job_Descrip,Status)
VALUES (001,'Office/Clerical','Accounting Clerk','Computes, classifies, records, and verifies numerical
	data for use in maintaining accounting records','NonExempt')

Thanks for your help!

I'm guessing you are executing the CREATE code over again. Be sure to DROP TABLE Job_Title before creating it again.
