TABLE Types come in handy when working with ABAP OO. Since you can not use the OCCURS 0, or HEADER LINEs in ABAP OO, you need a way to create tables, you can do this using the regular DATA statement, but sometimes it is a good idea to create these table types in the ABAP dicitionary. This way you don't have to code the TYPES statement for the structure and the DATA statement to create the internal table. They are also used when defining importing exporting parameters for methods. You can also use them in the importin/exporting parameters in function calls instead of the TABLES parameter section.
