I've also once used a regular instead of a temp table, so yes sometimes (for joins, special lookups or other) it can be better. However, with regular tables you'll have multiuser problems with deleting records. Only real safe way would be to add some field with a unique sessionID for this user (sessionID could be the exact time for start of this piece of code)(can't use username for if you login 2 times) And if Axapta crashes or whatever the records will not be deleted.
