Hi,

SELECT is used to retrieve data from transperent tables. It's the best one.

LDB are the Logical database:

Special ABAP program that combines the contents of specific database tables.

A logical database is linked to an ABAP report program as one of the program attributes. It supplies the report program with a set of hierarchically structured table entries derived from different database tables. This saves the developer from having to program the data retrieval.

The term "logical database" covers both the program and the dataset.

You maintain logical databases with the Logical Database Builder in the ABAP Workbench.
