I have never created a "temp table" before, because I was not sure when
the table was available and if or when it would be automaticly dropped.
Could someone let me know becuase I could probaly use them in data
massaging routines.

Temp tables are alive in the current session only. Once the session is
closed, the temp tables created in that session are dropped.
