Structure

[Former Member]

Hi,

What is the difference between Field string and Structure and when we use these?

Hi,

Structures: used to different fields together in a single unit. it doesnt occupy any memory. it doesnt hav any primary key. its just a template.

Field symbols: using this field symbols we can store any type of data. i.e for internal tables we declare a table with respect to a table.and we cant store data of another table in that table where as a field symbol can be used for generic purpose.

i.e we can store any table data in it. it depends on runtime what kind of data that we r using that field symbol.

Hi

Field String and Structure both are same, which doesn't occupy memory and which stores a single record at run time.

They are nothing but group of fields declared together in astring like structure

date: begin of xstruct,

no type kunnr,

name(30),

sal type netwr,

end of xstruct.
