The
Data Form class provides an interactive environment that enables you to browse
and edit SAS tables. A data form displays the contents of a SAS table one
row (observation) at a time using the table you specify in the Table field of the Data Form Attributes window. By default,
text entry controls are used to display the columns; however, you can substitute
any SAS/AF visual component to represent a column. For example, you might
choose to represent a column with a discrete number of values (such as "Y"
or "N" for "Yes" or "No") with a radio box rather than with a text entry control.
The Data Form class is a subclass of the Form Editor class. The differences between the Data Form and the Form Editor classes are that the Data Form class automatically loads an instance of the Data Set Data Model class, and it has an attributes screen that is specific to the Data Set Data Model class. Unlike the data form, the Form Editor Class does not automatically load any model class unless you select one in the Attributes window.

The
Data Table class provides an interactive environment that enables you to browse
and edit SAS tables. A data table provides a tabular display of multiple rows
(observations) of a SAS table using the table you specify in the Table field of the Data Table Attributes window.
The Data Table class is a subclass of the Table Editor class. The only difference between the Data Table class and the Table Editor class is that the Data Table class automatically loads an instance of the Data Set Data Model class. Unlike the data table, the Table Editor class does not automatically load any model class unless you select one in the attributes window.

By adding a data form or data table to your frame, you can add the capabilities of browsing and editing SAS tables without any additional SCL programs. However, you can use SCL to customize data form and data table objects.
