Search the IMS DB/DC forum for "parm" and you will see how I got it to work. It is not as easy as I had hoped it would be.

How it is possible when DFSRC00 has no ability to pass additional information to programs called by it ??

Yes, DFSRC00 has no ability to pass additional information to programs called by it. But... Youcan "CALL 'AIBTDLI' " to get the parms.

This('AIBTDLI' ) is something you have coded or it is pre existing ??

Is it very difficult to implement ??

I did not code it. I am almost positive it came with IMS.
You can see what I did in the posting I referred to earlier.
I hope this will link you to it.http://ibmmainframes.com/viewtopic.php?t=27935&highlight=parm
