Long Text - XLS to SAP

Question

Hi experts,
I'm importing data from an *.xls file (Excel) to SAP. For this I'm using the function
TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP, but in my *.xls there is a field that has a lot of
data. The purpose is to storage that field in a long text using the function
SAVE_TEXT. But the problem is when I import the XLS file to my internal table
(I_TAB_CONVERTED_DATA), the field that has a large amount of data, do not
support that type. I've tried with STRING, RAWSTRING, C(1024). Someone know
how can I handle that amount of data in a data type?
Regards,
Isaac Melendez
