Problem in dealing with xstrings

Question

Hi,
I am trying to read database field of type 'LRAW' (Length 32000) into a workarea of same data type by executing below statement:
SELECT SINGLE bsegment FROM wbtrbseg INTO ls_wbblob
WHERE clid = '123'.
Here, bsegment and ls_wbblob both are of assigned to same data Element of Data type 'LRAW'.
The problem is that value is not getting copied.
Am i missing something ?
I tried to give target field type as 'RAWSTRING' also but with no use.
Any sort of help is really appreciated.
Best Regards,
Sourabh

Thanks Sesh and Judith !
May be i can explain my main problem :
I have hexdecimal data in LRAW data type field in database table.
This data is passed to internal table with same data type (with your help).
Now i am passing this internal table for XML Transformation to get the XML.
CALL TRANSFORMATION ....
But the problem is that Transformation truncates any trailing zeros from the Hexdecimal data which comes in LRAW data type and this i do not want.
So, my question is that:
can you suggest some data type where LRAW data can be copied ?
I tried to copy it into RAWSTRING  but compiler gives incompatibitliy error
TYPES:BEGIN OF target_struc,
        ls_clid       TYPE wbkey,
        ls_blobno     TYPE wbint,
        ls_bsegno     TYPE wbint,
        ls_bseglen    TYPE wbint2,
        ls_bsegment   TYPE smoj_bin,  <--- smoj_bin has RAWSTRING datatype
      END OF target_struc.
DATA: lt_wbtrbseg TYPE TABLE OF target_struc.
SELECT  *
             FROM wbtrbseg
             INTO TABLE lt_wbtrbseg
             WHERE clid = '123'.
