Hi,

It is very simple,

STEP01: Read the record using cics control statement EXEC CICS READ

STEP02: Open the file(KSDS) in I/O mode, Populate the data in to the variables(local or directly to the file structure) of ksds.

STEP03: use MOVE statement if you are using local variables.

STEP04: the end

If the KSDS file is used by both online and batch, then you have to look for share options.
