the function begins with
whenevere error continue
DROP TABLE temp_table1
DROP TABLE temp_table2
whenevere error stop

Any Help?

i've tried to drop the two temp tables before exiting the function with the same portion of code, but this works only the first time and i get the same problem after with also the second table, the first do not cause any problem!
Anyway Thank you.
RE: Problem with temp table
i do this with an exception handler like this:
CODE
ON EXCEPTION IN (-958)
drop table tmp_t1;
END EXCEPTION WITH RESUME;
create temp table tmp_t1 (field1 integer);
create temp table tmp_t1 (field1 integer);
end procedure;
The second create table fires error 958 which results in dropping the temp table.
RE: Problem with temp table
i've used prepared statement when creating temp tables and i've no problem now. I did not tested yet your solution, but i will try it as soon as possible.
Thanks mberni.
