Re: Global Temporary Table Mystery

How did you check that tey are GTTs. I doubt they are. GTTs do not show up in dba_segments. If they ARE GTTs and they get allocated in system, then the id that created them must have had its temporary tablespace set to system.

Quoting Peter Barnett <regdba_at_yahoo.com>:
