HI,

Table type decides how that table can be accessed. Like standard tables can be access using INDEX and HASED TABLES using KEY and SORTED using BOTH.

LINE TYPE is nothing but the STRUCUTRE of each row of your internal table. say your ITAB is of TYPE TABLE OF SPFLI then your line type is SPFLI strucutre.

SORTED TABLE can be created with uniquie key or non unique key. Unique key means you cannot store two rows with same data for fields comprising the key of the table.

HASHED tables are alwways unique so only KEY access. The order is not mained in HASHED tables where as it is mainted in STANDARD Tables in SORTED order is always adjusted according to the KEY of the table.
