In smart forms-- difference between table and template

can you please tell me what is the difference between table and template in smart forms,
and als give me some object developed in smart forms.

it is not recommended because, when ever we activate the smartform it generates one function module.
if we transport that driver program and smartform to testing or production, in that server the generated function module name will be differ.
hope u got it.
for this we need to use these function modules.
SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME
FM_NAME

What is exact difference between table and template in script

hello all
what is exact difference between table and template in script

Hi there.
Tables alow you to achieve more complex flows with internal tables. You can use different types os lines, like footer, header, line items, and differente types of line items. Also, and most important, you have different processing blocks, again header block (processed before processing of first row), body block (rows) and footer block (after last row or page break).
If you don't need any of this, use a template inside a loop to achieve something like a table. I personaly use templates only to draw lines, for example, before and after a loop, or to align some header in my documents.
A table, is a loop and template mixed to become a very good tool.

Diffrence between Table and Template In Smartform

Hi,
Please could u tel me Difference between Table and Template In Smartform

Table exteds dynamically.
Template is fixed in size.
template is Output of a table containing static data
these are the Possible direct successors-All except window, page, table,
and template nodes
Table - Output of a table containing application
data and these are the Possible direct successors-as with template node
Template is used for proper allignment of data which table is used for displaying multiple data.
We can say Template is for static data and Table is for dynamic data.
Suppose we have a requirement in which we have to allign the customer address in such a way as shown below:-
Name- Krishna Company- WIPRO Location- Chennai
Desig- S/W Native - Mumbai
Then for proper allighnment we can create a template and split that into 3 columns and 2 rows and create text elements for each cell display a proper allighned data at the output.
When we include a template inside a loop it gives the same property as a table.
When we have mutiple data which is to be extended to the next page like when we display all employee details in a company we use table.
Table has 3 sections , HEADER, ITEM ,FOOTER
The header secntion will be executed once and it will loop at the item level. at the end footer will be executed.

Hi,
reference: no sid table, no master data, no data element, more or less just a pointer to the referenced object with the possibility to have a different name for the same thing.
template: sid table, master data, data element, a object of it's own as a copy of the template object, but a complete other object.

Difference between table and tenplate?

Hi
What is a difference between table and a template?
Thanks

are you refering to Smartforms?
Well in SF, table is something that contains data. Tables could be dynamic.
Template is a fixed format. Example if you have a invoice and the format is fixed with several vertical and horizontal lines. And you have terms and condition to be printed at the bottom. And the total amount.
Now this template will be printed in the form even if there are line items and even if htere is no line items.

Diff. between table and template in smartforms

hi there,
please tell me what the diff. between table and template options available in smartforms

HI
GOOD
TABLES=>
In forms of business procedures you usually want to list details such as open items of an invoice. You can use a Smart Form to display this data in a table. You can design the layout of the table independent of the number of lines it will contain. The size of the table depends on how much data the application program passes to the form at runtime (unlike with templates, where you specify the number of columns and lines explicitly). The table can cover one or more pages, depending on the number of lines. This is why you display tables in the main window.
TEMPLATES=>
Use node type Template to display a table whose layout and size (number of lines and columns) is determined before the runtime of the application program. For this reason, a template is also called a static table.
To create a template, define a table layout to determine the cell structure for each line. The cells are used to display the contents of the inferior nodes of the template node. This allows you to position text and a graphic side by side (see Displaying Graphics in Templates).
The template node is also suited for label printing.

Difference between table and advanced table

hi
what is the main difference between table and advanced table ?
What are the usages of both the Beans?

Hi
OAAdvancedTableBean extends OATableBean to provide declarative support for existing table features that previously required programmatic control.
OAAdvancedTableBean also provides declarative support for features not available with OATableBean, such as column span in a table column header. Oracle recommend new tables be implemented as "advanced tables"...
Please Read more info from Jdev Guide..

3. cluster tables
table type gives option for u to select different types of internal tables. they r
1. standard table
2. sorted table
3. hash table
Structures :
-Defined like a table and can then be addressed from ABAP programs.
-Structures contain data only during the runtime of a program.
-Just like user-defined data type.
- they are not present in database server and only on application server.
if helpful reward some points.

Difference between Table and Structure

Dear SD Gurus,
Can anybody tell me what is the difference between a Table and Structure
Pls Reply.

Tables are Database, which stay in system for long duration , as good as permanent, untill & unless the data is archived, which is not very frequent. Data at transaction level are captured from multiple tables, so as to meet the requirement. We can view the data in the table through T.code SE11 & SE16. there are certain tables in which data can be maintained as well as displayed. To maintain data, we use T.Code: SM30 or SM31.
Structures are temporary table & hold the data for that particular instance or transaction.

Rajesh Banka

Active form difference between Forms6i and Forms10g

We have a custom forms application that has recently been migrated from Forms6i to Forms10g. Our clients have noticed the following difference and I would appreciate some feeback.
1. FormA is called from the menu (CALL_FORM('form_name, NO_HIDE...)
2. FormB is called from the menu (CALL_FORM('form_name, NO_HIDE...)
3. From WINDOW - select FormA
Under Forms10g the menu and toolbar are now inactive (the tool bar is greyed out and the menu item cannot be selected - FormsA is now in focus but not active).
Under Forms6i the menu and toolbar remain not grayed out (though actions are in relations to FormB - currently not in focus but it appears still the active form).
It appears that there has been a tightening up between what form is currently in focus and active.
Is this the expected behaviour?

The menu items as not greyed out but in Forms10g the menu items do not function.
If you have a toolbar associated it is greyed out in Forms10g but not Forms6i.
I created a test case as follows; (forms created in 6i using wizards and then migrated to 10g).
1. Created form1
2. Created form2
3. Created Menu
     * item 1 - CALL_FORM('TEST_FORM_1',NO_HIDE);
     * item 2 - CALL_FORM('TEST_FORM_2',NO_HIDE);
     * item 3 - EXIT_FORM;
4. Run TEST_FORM_1
5. From MENU select TEST_FORM_2
6. From WINDOW (or click on) TEST_FORM_1
7. From MENU select EXIT_FORM
Under Forms6i TEST_FORM_2 exits (not this is the current active form but not the one currently in focus).
Under Forms10g EXIT_FORM does nothing.

Performance difference between tables and materialized views

hi ,
I created a materialized view on a query that involves partition table in it.
When i used the same query and created a table out of it <create table xyz as select * from (the query)> ,the table got created quickly.
So does that mean performance wise creating table is faster than creating/refreshing the materialized view ?or is that due to the refresh method i use ?Currently i use a complete refresh

I created a materialized view on a query that involves partition table in it.
When i used the same query and created a table out of it <create table xyz as select * from (the query)> ,the table got created quickly.
So does that mean performance wise creating table is faster than creating/refreshing the materialized view ?or is that due to the refresh method i use ?Currently i use a complete refresh Well, for starters, if you created the materialized view first and then the standard table, the data for the second one has already been fetched recently and so will reduce your I/O due to caching, and will therefore be quicker. There are also other factors such as the materialized view creating other internal bits that are required to allow for refreshes to be done quickly, such as the primary key etc which you haven't created on your second creation.
What you have shown is that two completely different statements running at different times, appear to operate with different speed. It is not a comparison of whether the materialized view is slower or quicker than the create table statement.

Difference between table and table model

From what I've understood till now, in a JTable, the table itself is actually only a "display area" while the actual data is located in the table model. Is this correct?
Does this mean it is possible to delete rows and columns within the table itself without affecting the actual data in the table model?

Hi,
ok, I will try to answer your second question "is it possible to delete rows and columns in the table but not in the table model"?
The table - lets say the table's view - reflects the data of the data model only, if you fire the correct notification messages via the TableModelListener interface - JTable itself is a TableModelListener and updates its display accordingly to these messages - it never holds data by itself - if something is to be redrawn in the view, JTable ask the model via getValueAt(...) for the data and renders it using one of the cellrenderers delivered by the column of the column model resp. one of the registered default renderers.
Now to your question - you can't delete a row in the tables view, without any change in the table model, as so the data isn't hold by the table's view, it is only held by the table model. But the other way round, it is possible - often accidentially - you can change the data in the table model and forget to fire a notification message for it via the TableModelListener interface - in this case, JTable will not update its view - and the table may look strange, if parts of its view is hidden by other applications and afterwards redrawn, when this application closes. Only the parts, that were hidden, will be redrawn - and this is done with the new data. So, keep track of always sending the correct notification message with every change you make in the table model, so that JTable is able to keep its view up to date.
Hope this helps
greetings Marsian
