Hi Chang,

Template is to display static data, and the height and width of the template is fixed.

where as table also used to display data in tabular format, but it iterates until the last record in the internal table specified. Table's height is not fixed, it dynamic based on the content.

Get back if u r not clear.

Regards,

Sujatha.

In Smart Forms the tables are dynamic. They number of rows/columns could be changed dynamically (depending upon the number of records in the database and how many we need to print) while running the program.

But a template is static. The height and width are fixed though it's also used to display data like the table.

Template is for printing Header details.

Table is used for Looping that is for printing item details.
