====== CREATE VOLATILE TABLE Statement - PL/HQL ====== CREATE VOLATILE TABLE statement allows you to create a temporary table for the current session. **Syntax**: <code language=sql> CREATE [SET | MULTISET] VOLATILE TABLE table_name ( column_name data_type [NULL | NOT NULL] [, ...] ) [ ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS | ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS] </code> Notes: * The volatile table is automatically dropped at the end of session. For more details how temporary table support is implemented in PL/HQL, see [[temporary-tables|Native and Managed Temporary Tables]]. **Example**: Create a managed temporary table and use it in other SQL statements: <code language=sql> SET plhql.temp.tables = managed; CREATE VOLATILE TABLE temp1 ( c1 INT, c2 STRING ); INSERT INTO temp1 SELECT 1, 'A' FROM dual; SELECT * FROM temp1; </code> **Compatibility:** Teradata **Version**: PL/HQL 0.3.1 See also: * [[temporary-tables|Native and Managed Temporary Tables]] * [[create-local-temporary-table|CREATE LOCAL TEMPORARY TABLE]] * [[declare-temporary-table|DECLARE TEMPORARY TABLE]] ~~NOTOC~~
