data:

buffer1 type xstring,

conv type ref to cl_abap_conv_in_ce,

int type i.

conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create(

encoding = 'file_tab-codepage'

endian = 'L' ).

i am upgrading a old report i got a unicode error

actually the report has the followig structure

tables: arc_buffer.

DATA: BEGIN OF class_package OCCURS 0.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE arch_packa.

DATA: END OF class_package.

now the report has following syntax

APPEND arc_buffer-segment TO class_package.

when i try to execute it it gives error that

'a line of class_package and arc_buffer-segment are not mutually convertible in a unicode program.'

can any one help me to resolve this.
