use string for ur purpose..

declaration

data : str type string.

SSTRING 1-255 Character string string

STRING 256-... Character string string

The type SSTRING is available as of release 6.10 and it has a variable length. Its maximum length must be specified and is limited to 255. The advantage of this type compared with CHAR, is that it is assigned to the ABAP type string.

Thanks & Regards
