Create Data And Create Object

former_member244474 — Tue, 03 Jul 2012 22:03:10 GMT

I am pretty new to ABAP and was wondering what is the technical difference between these 2.

Also what is the significance of field symbols! I mean they are just placeholders which can hold any derefrenced data. The same thing could be done by declaring a variable by the same type too! Why ABAP bothered to have this keyword?

Thanks & Regards
