Use dynamic memory. Change "char here[100]" to be "char *here" then just allocate memory and set "here" equal to it.... ie:

C: here = malloc(size)
C++: here = new char[size]

And don't forget to deallocate the memory once you're done

struct dat
{
unsigned char* here;
}

don't make "here" an array and a pointer, otherwise it will be an array of pointers, and you only need one pointer

simply use define statement.
which means after declaring header file
#define SIZE 100

and then while using struct write here[SIZE] and when u run ur program keep changing the SIZE .

or simply use the realloc

if you're using c++ you could use a template:
Code:
 template<int size> struct gogogo
 {
 char here[size];
 };
 //...
 gogogo<100> hundred;
 gogogo<23> twenty_three;
