Generate is nothing but activating(CTL+F3) while activating the system creates a runtime object when u execute it executes that runtime object ...

<b>program------>generate</b> Is used to generate the ABAP code...Easy right? -;)

It's the same as using CTRL + F3.

Every time you modify an ABAP Program....It must be generated in order to work....Let's say that you compiled the source code -:)

Hi,

This is used to activate the program, once you activate ur program then only you can run it.

Also after activation only it will get stored in the buffer.

Its same as CTRL+F3 or activation symbol.

hi

itz for activating your ABAP Code.You could also use CNTRL+F3

Itz similar to compiling process in other programming languages.

After activation Platform independent byte code will be generated which will then be

interpreted by the ABAP Processor during execution(F8)

Cheers,
