The DFHCOMMAREA is for user info.
you want the exec interface block.
here is a direct link to one version of cics:
publib.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/BOOKS/dfhwp405/2.1?ACTION=MATCHES&REQUEST=rewrite&TYPE=FUZZY&SHELF=dfhwsh0p&DT=20060119100347&CASE=&searchTopic=TOPIC&searchText=TEXT&searchIndex=INDEX&rank=RANK&ScrollTOP=FIRSTHIT#FIRSTHIT

you can always download the appropriate Application Programmers Reference and any other CICS manual at:
