Error while copying Z program to another enviroment

Question

Hi, experts
I have a Z program into one client's enviroment, which works fine. I tried copying this program into another client's enviroment, and i get the following error message, while syntax check:
"RC_IN1 must be a byte-type field. (Typ X or XSTRING)."
And this error is on the following form:
form xor using rc_in1 type c rc_in2 type c rc_out type c.
  data:
    li_abit type i,
    li_bbit type i.
  rc_out = space.
  if rc_in1 <> space.
    do 8 times.
      get bit sy-index of rc_in1 into li_abit.
      get bit sy-index of rc_in2 into li_bbit.
      if li_abit <> li_bbit.
        set bit sy-index of rc_out to 1.
      else.
        set bit sy-index of rc_out to 0.
      endif.
    enddo.
    if rc_out = space.
      rc_out = rc_in1.
    endif.
  endif.
endform.
When I check into one client's enviroment, it does not gives error. Only in THAT client.
Why is this happening?
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
are the both client environments hav same version (ECC 6).
In ECC 6 version type X is not allowed.
To avoid this problem,
you need to declare the field of TYPE C.
you need to get the value from Cl_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES.
