Firebird and temporary tables.
I have one more question.

Is there in Firebird something like temporary tables? I used this many times in my stored procedures in MSSQL, and here I can't find nothing like that.

Thank you again.

Not officially, but there is some implementation of temp tables.
I am using Firebird 7-8 years (under name Interbase first ), and never needed temp tables. You can simulate them using stored proc's...

I don't know if you understand me. I'm using temporary tables in stored procedures in MSSQL. They are active only in stored procedure. And it is a very effective tool. I think...

How do you simulate them in Firebird through stored proc's?

Thank you.

In Firebird you can create selectable stored procedures...

Ok. Now, if I understand, in Firebird you can make stored procedure, that returns table (or set of rows), you can use in another stored procedure?
Is it right?
Ok, thank you very much Fikret.

As Fikret said

which is very dynamic.
BTW, Firebird 2.1 (currently in alpha stage) supports global temporary tables.

How can you do this in Firebird?
John

By changing the values of the parameters you pass into your stored procedure.
