I am using a Table Variable in My stored Procedure. The stored procedure is too long. I need this Table variable in early part of the stored procedure only. How can I clean up the Table variable after I finished using it? I dont want it to exist untill stored procedure finishes.

for this purpose you better use temporary table...

You can't. The table variable is there for the scope of entire stored procedure.
You can however do a DELETE FROM @MyTableVariableNameHere if you want to empty the table.
