Passing data thru XCTL in CICS

Hi All,

I have one doubt regarding the passing data from XCTL.

I have one program TESTPGM and TESTPGM1.
TESTPGM1 program is called by TESTPGM through XCTL and passing data also.

Here my doubt is whether Can I change the data in TESTPGM1 which is COMMAREA.

I have declared COMMAREA IN TESTPGM1 as follows.

01 DFHCOMMAREA.
05 COMMMAREA PIC X(124).

When I'm debugging with Xpeditor it is showing as follows.

K 01 DFHCOMMAREA GROUP LINKAGE SECTION 01 PTR=0
K 02 COMMMAREA X(124) LINKAGE SECTION 01 PTR=0

Here I was unable to edit the the DFHCOMMAREA.

Is it possible to edit DFHCOMMAREA data which was passed by XCTL program.

Please sugguest me on this.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
Sridevi
