Hi,

Use type only, because like is obsolete statement in oops abap.

Plzz reward points if it helps.

it's always preferable to use TYPE. if u put LIKE it finds the data type of the data object you mention after LIKE.

Reward if useful

Hi Mr/Ms Hi

you cannt compare the performance for these two 'type' & 'like'.

Like - it works like as a data type. like as a user defined data type.

Type - it works like as a standard data type.

pls reward pts.
