both of them are different.

appending alv is knowthing but diplay list one by one.

suppose if u want to print the mara and marc tables data we use appnding alv.

but heiraricle is for display the data based on the current one.

i.e if u want to display the data of header of mara as a first one.based up on

this only u will get the another item data of like marc.

Hierarchial ALV is used when you have 2 levels of data, a header level and a detail level, you can have many detail records to a header record. The APPEND ALV that you mention is commonly referred to as the Block ALV, all this is is mulitple ALV lists combined into one. Each ALV list is tabular.
