Hi,

Abap is programming language in business, data dictionary is kind a interface for editor to retrive from database level to presentation area. its a meta data.

The ABAP Dictionary’s integration with the rest of the development environment enables ABAP programs to automatically recognize the names and characteristics of dictionary objects.

Additionally, the system provides easy navigation between development objects and dictionary definitions. For example, as a programmer, you can double-click on the name of a dictionary object in your program code, and the system will take you directly to the definition of that object in the ABAP/4 Dictionary.

Reward points if helpful,

regards,

jinesh

Hi!

This might mean, if you are double clicking in the ABAP editor on a data dictionary element (table, data element, structure), then it will navigate you into the DDIC.

It makes a bit quicker the development...

The statement means that it provides a unique feature to navigate to the transaction through your abap editor itself. u need not go to the se11 to see the details of the table or structure used. this feature in not there in script. we cannot navigate any table through se71.

reward points if clear.

ABAP Editor: Tool in the ABAP Workbench in which you enter the source code of ABAP programs and check their syntax. You can also navigate from the ABAP Editor to the other tools in the ABAP Workbench.
