Heya everyone.

Quick question.

I have a table on the Oracle database I plan on creating, doing some stuff in, and 
then deleting.

Now (blatant assumption) I would assume I would use a 'temporary table' i.e. - 

SQL:
--
CREAT GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE fred
(
   ..column names...
)
--

stupid question - but WHY use a temporary table? Is it designed for such a thing, 
or is it designed so that the DATA is temporary?

Is there a better 'table type' out there?

Cheers,

Mark
