Frinds,
What is Global Temporary Table?
I created through

i reopen the sql plus...
But still that table is there.
then why we should call Temporary table?
Thanks
Mano

The table is there but the data is not.
This is the meaning of "global".
You create the definition of the table, this is the permanent part.
You fill it during your session and the data disappear with it (or the transaction depending on the option you give).
