Most of the comments I have seen on Temporary Tables in FB say that you shouldn't really need them in FB... Not sure on the justification on this, but it has been mentioned by people 'In the Know'...
 
Can a stored procedure be used instead? Stored procedures can be used to return data like a table, and people often comment when moving from SQL Server to FB that they use (or are recommended to use) Stored Procs instead of Temp Tables.

From memory, InterBase 7.1 supports temporary tables. Not sure about firebird.

Hi
 
As you may have gathered we are moving from Dbase to Firebird.  An app we have makes some temporary (dbase) tables and after processing disposes of them.  I know we can create tables in FB / IB on the fly but we are reluctant to risk polluting our database with these temporary tables.  Any suggestions greatly appreciated :)
