The two links that Aaru provided work fine.

The basic consensus is that you can't do that.

please explain your question better.

If you are new to CICS, try some of the available Mainframe beginner

Can anyone tell the attribute or the keyword used to display '*****' in the place of entering the Password.

If you try to login using your userid & password.
User Id : test01
Pwd : *****

Actual pwd : pwd01
In the Screen it should appear as *'s and this should be done when entering the data.

I dont want *'s to come after pressing ENTER or any KEY using the logic in program.
'*'s should be displayed when typing on the screen itself.

Hello,

As posted earlier, "The basic consensus is that you can't do that."

What you might do is key the password into an invisible password field. I.e define the attribute for the password field as invisible.
