I used EXTATT=YES option in DFHMSD macro and then HILIGHT=UNDERLINE in the DFHMDF macro but instead of highlighting only the specific field, the whole map is being underlined.
Can any one tell me is something more required for the correct result.

What does your map DFHMSD look like? Are you sure you want EXTATT=YES? From the CICS Language Reference:
Quote:
EXTATT
this operand is supported for compatibility with previous releases. Each of the extended attributes can be defined individually. For new maps, the operands DSATTS and MAPATTS should be used instead.

NO
is equivalent to specifying neither the DSATTS operand nor the MAPATTS operand.

YES
is equivalent to:


MAPATTS=(COLOR,HILIGHT,PS,VALIDN)
DSATTS=(COLOR,HILIGHT,PS,VALIDN)

MAPONLY
is equivalent to:


MAPATTS=(COLOR,HILIGHT,PS,VALIDN)

Problem is resolved using stopper field after the field in which I was using highlight option.
Thanks.

DFHMSD refers to the entire map. Try at the field leve > DFHMDF

Glad to hear your issue is resolved -- but why weren't you using ending field markers already?
