Hi,
what is the difference between Internal table and the table we created in data Dictionary.
what is work area and field string?

Hi
DB table is the table where data is stored in database
and it exits both ind atabse and data dictionary
where as Internal tables are run time tables which we use for data processing
depending on data they automatically grow at run time
we use these tables for data processing, as it is not advised to play with DB tables with all DML and DDL commands.
Work area is like field string means a record which consists of some fields
they are like one record data of internal table

Internal table is just a tempory table specific to the program. Exists only in that program
Database table is a global table used in programs
Workarea is just a structure

hi,
Database table is a table thatis used for the entire data dictionary.But Internal Table is a table which is specified within a program.
Whenever a table is activated in DD we can insert,modify,delete or we can do the modifications for that table.But Internal table is for the particlar program and is restricted.No one can use it.

Hi,
data which we send to data base table will be stored in database.
internal table is for doing transaction(retrieving,creating or updating) on the database table(dictionary table) in the program..
wa and field string we will use both of them for holding the single record.
wa we will say for internal table.
field string we will say for structure.
there is no difference.
