Hi,

There is nothing like structured table. You might be searching for diff. between structures and transperent table.

In simple terms,

Former is just a table defination and later actually have the corresponding data stored in DB.

Just search forum there are lots of threads on the same.

Regards,

Atish

hi,

Structure does'nt hold any data.it is just a collection of fields.

Table Holds data.it contains fields and data.

Fields are contained in table.

In structure-only runtime values can be stored

In table-can store data permanently

In fields-group of entry/data which r placed in ordered manner within table

Thanks and regards,
