Tables Created By SELECT INTO Inherit Parent Table Constraints!

Hey there,

Trying to build a temporary table based on a parent table such that:
select * into #staging from tbl_parent where 1=0

The temp table (#staging) picks up any NOT NULL constraints from the parent (tbl_parent) table and frankly, it doesn't meet my needs.
I also tried to build a view of the parent (tbl_parent) table from which to base my SELECT INTO and still, the constraints followed.

I'm thinking perhaps it possble to iterate though the temp table using syscolumns sysobjects and and set the column NULL properties on the temp table AFTER its been created but in this approach, I'm working to avoid directly referencing the columns by name.

Is this possible?  A better answer perhaps?

Purpose of exercie is to populate a record in memory before it hits the table.
I'll be constructing the record on the fly so that at first, I won't have all the fields to de-Null the columns.
Also, I don't wish to lose the fact that some of my fields are Null - once I've fully populated my temp record, I'll insert into my 'real' table and will depend on constraints to throw the appropriate error.  In this I won't have to built custom error checking in the stored procedure itself but instead depend on SQL SERVERS built capacity to the throw the error.  This opens a bunch of possibilities for extensibility since if at a later date a constraint rule changes, one need only change the parent table definition rather than cracking open the stored procedure.

Thank you for reading and a big thanks to you for replying :)
