Smartform: Data Table creation & Difference with regular Table

[Former Member]

Hi,

In regards to Smart Forms, what is the difference between a regular Table & a Data Table?

How does one go about creating a Data Table?

Thanks,

Hi John,

Can you describe in more detail about what do you mean with "Regular Table" and "Data Table"?

In my perception, you mean "Regular Table" as the object table that is inserted to the smartform for displaying data in table format.

Then a "Data Table" is an internal table, like in standard ABAP program, that will contain the data to be used in smartform. To create a "Data Table" like I describe above, go to the "Global Definitions" tab "Types" and put your table structure there, then use the structure to create the "Data Table" in tab "Global Data".

I hope the above description could help you. But if not, you might need to post the question in "Form Printing" forum.
