there is no such standard data element.

you can either use the pre-defined type string or use sapscript texts for storing data with length more than 255.

Hi Siddiqui,

You can use data type STRING.

To find any dataelements which are predefined:

--> Go to SE11

--> In domain give CHAR* and click F4.

--> Find a domain of length more than 255

--> Use where used list for it, to get all the dataelements using this domain.

Either you can use a STRING or you can declare a type like this as per the requirement.

types text_data(4096) type c occurs 0.
