D Correct answer
Explanation

Character variables in SAS can have lengths from 1 to 32 characters, which is why option D is correct. Option A incorrectly states 1-256, which exceeds the SAS limit. Option B's fixed 8 characters is too restrictive, and option C's 256 characters maximum is incorrect for standard SAS character variables (though longer lengths are possible with modern SAS versions, the traditional limit was 32).
