Table Control
The Table Control screen element is mapped onto the Web Dynpro UI element Table, which contains a set of TableColumn elements. The TableColumn consists of a caption for the column header and a Web Dynpro UI element that was obtained by transforming a non-container screen element.

Context Structure
Context Structure of the Table
The context node for a table control (marked with 1 in the figure above) contains the following elements:
- A node with cardinality 0:n for the table data (2 in above image), which is used as the data source for the Table UI element.
- The subnodes of the table data node (3 in above figure) contain the data for the table cells. The structure of these nodes is element-specific and corresponds to the context structure of the non-container screen elements. If a row selection attribute is set, a node with the name of the corresponding ABAP variable is created. It stores the data for the selection column.
- Nodes for the table columns (4 in above figure). These nodes contain the context attributes used for binding TableColumn properties as described above.
