please any one can tell me modifytable keyword used in DDIC?
what is a basic diffrence between modify table and update key
word?

Answer Posted / apoorv sharma

Both modifies DDIC table but the Difference btwn modify
table and update table is :

Suppose u write modify <DDIC Table > from <work area>
then it will modify the row with same primary key value as
that of work area. But if it donot find any row then it will
NOT insert the work area row in DDIC table,

whereas,
update statement will insert a new row at last in DDIC Table.
