Hi,

1. TYPES statement defines the structure without allocation of memory, DATA statements allocate the memory at runtime.

2. Create a structure by using types statement and refer it by using the DATA statement.

3. In order to avoid the internal table declaration without header line, we are declaring a structure by types statemnet and declaring an internal table with reference to the structure.

Regards,

Ferry Lianto
