In QTP, there is data table used , which is used at runtime.
-In QTP, select the option View->Data tabke.
-This is basically an excel file, which is stored in the folder of the test created, its name is Default.xls by default.

Hi!,
Run-Time Data Table?
There could be 2 answers
1) It could be Global Data Sheet, wherein values can be stored/retrived only at runtime.
2) or it could be default data table created in the Script floder.

after running the parameterized test,you can view the actual values taken from the data table in the test results.

(in Qtp TEST TESULT window,on left side Tree view
with a small icon like table say Run-time data )

The test results tree also includes the table-shaped icon that displays the run-time Data Table—a table that shows the values used to run a test containing Data Table parameters or the Data Table output values retrieved from a test while application test run.

The DataTable itself is called a Run-Time Data table because the data which we are entered in the data table is perametrized to the script at run time

A Data table is like an excel sheet which is used for parameterization. Data table can be found in QTP Window and when you save the test, the values in the data table is saved in "Default.xls" file in the test folder.

1. While coding your script, table which u will see in QTP IDE is design
time data table

2. Data Table which is used by QTP at runtime to read parameter values is
called Runtime data table.

You can find Runtime data table in QTP test result window.

Runtime Data Table = Design time table + Output values from actions
