I believe that the guy who asked the question expected the table to be gone
when the session logs out, but it isn't the case. Global temporary tables are
nothing like the temporary tables from SQL server, which vanish when the
session
is done. I don't think that creatig/dropping tables at the end of the session
is
a good idea. I'm using GTT in several of my perl scripts in such a way that I
first
load data into a GTT and then run a PL/SQL procedure to transform the data into
the
required format, but I don't drop them. Most of those perl scripts are run from
cron.
