Hi,

Check this code for table control to update multiple bank details in vendor masterupload

    DATA : fnam(20) TYPE c,
  idx TYPE c.
  MOVE 1 TO idx.
  LOOP AT it_bank  WHERE lifnr = p_lifnr-low.
    CONCATENATE 'LFBK-BANKS(' idx ')' INTO fnam.
    PERFORM bdc_field USING fnam
    it_bank-banks.

    CONCATENATE 'LFBK-BANKL(' idx ')' INTO fnam.
    PERFORM bdc_field USING fnam
    it_bank-bankl.

    CONCATENATE 'LFBK-BANKN(' idx ')' INTO fnam.
    PERFORM bdc_field USING fnam
    it_bank-bankn.

    CONCATENATE 'LFBK-KOINH(' idx ')' INTO fnam.
    PERFORM bdc_field USING fnam

    idx = idx + 1.
  ENDLOOP.

BDC table control is an area on the screen in which you can display data in tabular form. You process it using a loop. Table controls are comparable to step loop tables. While a table control consists of a single definition row, step loop blocks may extend over more than one row. Table controls are more flexible than step loops, and are intended to replace them

This is the diff betn Table controls and step loops .

In Table Controls

Data is displayed in the form of table.

Table control gives user the feeling of an actual table.

You can scroll through the table vertically as well as horizontally.

You can select rows and columns.

You can resize the with of columns.

You can have separator lines between rows and columns.

Automatic resizing of the table when the user resizes the window.

You can update information in the table control and it can be updated inthe database table by writing code for it.

In Step Loops ,

Step loops are type of screen tables.

Step loops are nothing but repeated blocks of fields in a screen.

Each block contains one or more fields.

Step loops don't give you feeling of actual table.

You can scroll vertically but not horizontally.

why & when we should go for table control in bdc

we use the table control in bdc when we have a multiple record in a single transaction.

like : In pp module we have multiple line items(SFG, RW etc.) to upload a BOM of FG Item.

if u need some bdc for table control, pls revert back...i will send u bdc for bom uploading..

which will be helpful to understand u better..
