If you knew the terminal-id that the user signed-on to, then you could obtain the userid via an INQUIRE TERMINAL command.
However, obtaining the user's password is highly irregular and perhaps, a violation of rules defined by your Security group.
I can understand the userid capture, but the password? I think you need to speak to someone at your site regarding this subject.
Perhaps you were misinformed (or misunderstood) the requirements?
Regards,
Bill |

The user should have been validated when he logged on. I don't think any security group would allow you access to the passwords (which wouldn't be readable anyway). |

You can retrieve the userid:
Code: |
EXEC CICS ASSIGN
USERID(WS-USERID)
END-EXEC. |
Where WS-USERID is defined in working storage as PIC X(08). |
