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

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
