Hi all,

I got some doubts. Please clarify me. Thanks in advance.

1. What are the different ways to create maps

2. What is the method to check whether data is entered or not, when a map is sent to terminal

3. How to change a field in CICS

4. My job is submitted. I did not get the message in SPOOL. What would be the reason.

hai.

1. the way to create maps as far as i know is to use the assembler macros. we also have SDF which is more interactive than BMS.

2. we can check the fieldname+l. if it is greater than 0, we can send the map or else we can go for the input routine.

3. change the field? i don't get you.

4. check the NOTIFY positional parameter in your JOB statement. Is that prompting your userid. Even if that does, go to the spool and give the command in the command line: OWNER your userid


corrections welcomed..........

u have to check if the variable eibcalen=0.If it is zero then it is the first transaction and no data was previously entered.
