I'm not sure of the Access syntax but I would have thought you wanted
IF NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM MSysObjects
WHERE ParentID = (SELECT Id FROM MSysObjects WHERE Name =
'productID')
AND Name = '#CFTOKEN#')
CREATE TABLE Here!!
END IF
Do INSERT here

Along the lines of:
IF EXISTS( SELECT *
FROM MSysObjects
WHERE ParentID = ( SELECT Id
FROM MSysObjects
WHERE Name = 'productID')
AND Name = '#CFTOKEN#')
ELSE( CREATE TABLE #CFTOKEN# (
productID number,
productQty number);)
Maybe?
