Hi,

Before using any function key in my program i need to check that the date field is chaged or not by the user. For that i have put following code-

IF EFFDATE-L > 0 AND
IF EFFDATE-F = X'00'

Is it fine?? The problem i m facing while testing it thru expeditor is
1. If i m using both the condition, even in case of date field is changed the control is not coming inside the loop.
2. And if i m removing the first condition, the control is coming inside the loop even the date is not changed.

Could anyone please help me as i m new in CICS.

Thanks in advance.
Sanjay

Hello,

Do a bit of research on the "modified data tag".

If you search the cics part of our forum, there are several topics.

At the top of the page is a link to "IBM Manuals" among which is the
"CICS TS/zOS Language Reference" which also has info.
