Hi

SE 38 ->Abap Editor thru which we can create/modify the programs.

SE80 ->Object Navigator thru which we can navigate to many areas like message classes,Function modules,application areas,transactions, programs etc.

se80 is to navigate to every object .....

but everytime there is no need to navigate to several steps and go to abap editor.

So there certain transactions which takes us to directly to the objects such as SE38 for abapaeditor

SE37 for function module

SE93 for creating transaction codes...etc.

SE38, u will get more space in editor when u compare with the SE80 screen, the tree structure available will occupy more space so it will be eay for us to code.

If u want to do any special navigation then u can got to SE80, but there is no specific reason.

It depends on teh users convineince.

Hi Shamim,

Both are same in terms of functionality but SE80 provides all the details related to particular application/program.

U can also traverse to se80 from SE38 itself using CtrlShiftF5.

*Reward if this helps.

hi,

The 2 editors are se38 and se80 both have the abap editor in place. In se38 you can go create programs and view online reports and basically do all thedevelopmet of objects in this editor. In se80 ( object navigator) there are additional features such as creating packages,module pool , function group ,classes, programs ( where you can create ur programs) and BSP applications .
