for a inquiry in front end for a search critriea, we will get bulk number of records from VSAM file. But front end only show 10 records at a time. so we need do paging, and we need to send 10 records at a time.

for this criteria i need how we can send these records to front end using CICS API's. And is it possible to send by getting page number as input from the front end and we need to fetch that particular page and send those records to front end.

please help me.

please take the time and explain better, so that we can help you.

what do you mean by front end?

are you trying to communicate with a green screen terminal ?

do you have a client (java) program trying to communicate with a cics commarea program?
