get yestersday no time:

SELECT dateadd(day,datediff(day,1,GETDATE()),0)

query for all of rows from only yesterday:

select 
    * 
    from yourTable
    WHERE YourDate >= dateadd(day,datediff(day,1,GETDATE()),0)
        AND YourDate < dateadd(day,datediff(day,0,GETDATE()),0)

Sql-server – Check if table exists in SQL Server

For queries like this it is always best to use an INFORMATION_SCHEMA view. These views are (mostly) standard across many different databases and rarely change from version to version.

To check if a table exists use:

IF (EXISTS (SELECT * 
                 FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
                 WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'TheSchema' 
                 AND  TABLE_NAME = 'TheTable'))
BEGIN
    --Do Stuff
END
