Create database if not exists and then create tables in that database in SQL Server

I have SQL script (in one sql file) which

I have started like:

IF ServerProperty('Edition') <> 'SQL Azure'
BEGIN
    DECLARE @createDatabaseSqlStatement NVARCHAR(MAX)
    SET @createDatabaseSqlStatement =
        'DECLARE @TargetDatabase VARCHAR(128) = ''MyDatabase''

        IF (NOT EXISTS (SELECT name FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases WHERE (''['' + name + '']'' = @TargetDatabase OR name = @TargetDatabase)))
        BEGIN

        CREATE DATABASE MyDatabase

        END

        USE [MyDatabase]'

    EXEC sp_executesql @createDatabaseSqlStatement
END

SET NOCOUNT ON

DECLARE @DefaultAdministrator   varchar(100) = 'admin'      
DECLARE @DefaultPassword    varchar(100) = 'tester01!!'     
DECLARE @DefaultAdministatorEmail varchar(100) = '[email protected]'
DECLARE @DefaultUserRoleName    varchar(100) = 'rolename'           
DECLARE @DefaultAdministratorRoleName varchar(100) = 'role'

--CREATE TABLES

--CREATE THE 'AspNetUsers' TABLE
IF OBJECT_ID (N'AspNetUsers', N'U') IS NULL
BEGIN
    CREATE TABLE [dbo].[AspNetUsers](
        [Id] [nvarchar](128) NOT NULL,
        [Email] [nvarchar](256) NULL,
        [EmailConfirmed] [bit] NOT NULL,
        [PasswordHash] [nvarchar](max) NULL,
        [SecurityStamp] [nvarchar](max) NULL,
        [PhoneNumber] [nvarchar](max) NULL,
        [PhoneNumberConfirmed] [bit] NOT NULL,
        [TwoFactorEnabled] [bit] NOT NULL,
        [LockoutEndDateUtc] [datetime] NULL,
        [LockoutEnabled] [bit] NOT NULL,
        [AccessFailedCount] [int] NOT NULL,
        [UserName] [nvarchar](256) NOT NULL,
        [SystemId] [nvarchar](max) NOT NULL 
            CONSTRAINT DF__AspNetUsers__SystemId DEFAULT (''),
        [LastLogonTime] [datetime2] NULL,
        [BlockReason] [nvarchar](1000) NULL,
        [EmailConfirmationDateUtc] [datetime] NULL
     CONSTRAINT [PK_dbo.AspNetUsers] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED 
    (
        [Id] ASC
    )WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
    ) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]


    CREATE UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED INDEX [UserNameIndex] ON [dbo].[AspNetUsers]
    (
        [UserName] ASC
    )WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, DROP_EXISTING = OFF, ONLINE = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
END


...

I have issue that tables are not created in MyDatabase database and they are stored in master database.

How to solve issue ? How to create table into MyDatabase database instead of master ?

If I put USE [MyDatabase] after SET NOCOUNT ON then script failed that MyDatabase is not found (in SQL Management Studio)

You are looking for the GO statement. It will separate the batches so in one batch you can create your database:

IF ServerProperty('Edition') <> 'SQL Azure'
BEGIN
    DECLARE @createDatabaseSqlStatement NVARCHAR(MAX)
    SET @createDatabaseSqlStatement =
        'DECLARE @TargetDatabase VARCHAR(128) = ''MyDatabase''

        IF (NOT EXISTS (SELECT name FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases WHERE (''['' + name + '']'' = @TargetDatabase OR name = @TargetDatabase)))
        BEGIN

        CREATE DATABASE MyDatabase

        END '

        -- this is not needed here: USE [MyDatabase]'

    EXEC sp_executesql @createDatabaseSqlStatement
END
GO

And afterwards you can simply use it by writing: 

USE [MyDatatabase]
GO

And then the rest of your script.

This code doesn't look right:

    DECLARE @TargetDatabase VARCHAR(128) = ''MyDatabase''

    IF (NOT EXISTS (SELECT name FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases WHERE (''['' + name + '']'' = @TargetDatabase OR name = @TargetDatabase)))
    BEGIN

    CREATE DATABASE MyDatabase

    END

    USE [MyDatabase]

This creates a database explicitly called MyDatabase, not named based on the value in @TargetDatabase. You would like to do:

    CREATE DATABASE @TargetDatabase

But that won't work. So you need dynamic SQL:

DECLARE @sql NVARCHAR(MAX) = 'CREATE DATABASE @TargetDatabase';

SET @SQL = REPLACE(@SQL, '@TargetDatabase', @TargetDatabase);

EXEC sp_executesql @SQL;

Then, the USE statement is only valid for that session -- which disappears when the dynamic SQL ends. My recommendation is simply to include the database name in all the table names:

CREATE TABLE MyDatabase.[dbo].[AspNetUsers] (
   . . .

Of course, you can use dynamic SQL for this to plug in the variable database name.
