i m using this syntax pls check if it is correct, and also tell whether i need to do any changes in jcl ,coz my normal jcl is not working
999-PARA.
IF W IS EQUAL ZERO
DISPLAY ' NO MATCH FOUND '
END-IF.
CLOSE JCL-FILE1.
EXEC CICS XCTL
PROGRAM(CALLER)
END-EXEC.
jcl i m using is
//TRYANKIT JOB A123,'NAME',NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//STEP1 EXEC PROC=IGYWCL,PARM='DYNAM'
//COBOL.SYSIN DD DSN=TRNG.EDUC36.TRYHARD(THIRD),DISP=SHR
//LKED.SYSLMOD DD DSN=TRNG.LIB.LOAD(THIRD),DISP=SHR
//COBOL.SYSLIB DD DSN=TRNG.EDUC36.NEWSORT1(CALLED),DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
//
it is giving error as invalid exec
72 IGYPS2072-S "EXEC" was invalid. Skipped to the next verb,.....
the rest of my code is a simple cobol file handling program..
please help,if anybody having any idea. |

Hello,
Is this the same as your other topic? Why did you believe posting a totally different topic would help?
Is this a batch cobol program?
Should the other topic be locked because this is really what you want to know? |

If you're going to use EXEC CICS commands in your code, you either need to run the program through the CICS translator before the compile, or use the CICS option of the COBOL compiler (assuming your release of COBOL is recent enough to support the CICS option).
EXEC CICS XCTL is used for CICS programs to transfer control to other CICS programs. If you are wanting to invoke a CICS program from a batch COBOL program (which it appears you may be wanting to do), be aware that EXEC CICS XCTL is not the way to do so, and also be aware that this is not a simple process and you will need to use an interface specifically designed for doing so (read the CICS manuals for details). |

Hello,
It may help someone help you if you describe exactly what needs to be accomplished.
Don't use a "generic" explanation - post what the batch job does and why it needs to somehow communicate with or start some CICS transaction(s). What does the cics code provide (what business functon(s)? |

if i am using this jcl for running t cobol code with XCTL command then it is compiling and giving maxcc=0, but during run time its giving SOC1 abend...
//EDUC44NH JOB ,'CICS',NOTIFY=&SYSUID
// JCLLIB ORDER=TRNG.HARI.PROCLIB
//STEP1 EXEC CICSCMP
//CICSTRAN.SYSIN DD DSN=TRNG.EDUC36.TOOL(third),
// DISP=SHR
//COBOL.SYSLIB DD DSN=CICSTS12.SDFHCOB,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=TRNG.EDUC36.COPYLIB,DISP=SHR
//LKED.SYSLMOD DD DSN=TRNG.LIB.LOAD(third),DISP=SHR
//LKED.SYSIN DD *
INCLUDE SYSLIB(DFHECI)

The S0C1 abend means you're attempting to execute an instruction that the computer does not understand. This could be due to an addressing (AMODE / RMODE) error, overwriting your code with data due to table overflow, a Language Environment problem, or any number of other reasons. You are not providing anything helpful to decipher the cause of your error.

Your statement of your "requirement" is absolute, utter nonsense. A file does not have rows -- it has records. Databases have rows. CICS does not handle sequential files easily -- you must use an extrapartition transient data queue to read the file (and such a file is read-only). Terminology is critical in IT, where similar terms may mean very different things -- and so far you are showing no grasp of terminology, which implies you may be better off on the student / beginner forum rather than here.
So why don't you go back to the beginning, tell us what you are trying to do, the environment you are attempting to do it in, with correct terminology, and let us help you determine the method to use. |

look what i am doing is i m creating a tool to know on which line the data (which is a word) is present on a sequential file.
for this i m using a cics screen on which i m giving input a word(which is to be search) and dataset ( sequential file in which to search) i m submitting a jcl thru this cics program to run t cobol program which is doing this search and i m able to get desired result also but that result is in t SYSOUT in spool, i want to display this result on a cics screen, for this reason i want to transfer this data to a cics program.
i try using link but my compile jcl is giving error as invalid exec statement,
i dont know how to use EXCI and also what modification i need to incorporate in my jcl for that..
Actually this is mu 1st project in L&T Infotech. and they have given me a case study before that,
still thanks for trying to help me.. |

Hello,
Load the sequential file into a vsam file or database table (or the previously mentoned extrapartition transient data queue). Then reference this from a cics program directly.
Even if you get something running as is currently being tried, i suspect it could become a support and maintenance nightmare. |

how to load a sequential file in a TDQ...
i am unable to load into a vsam connected to cics as after getting an fct entry than that file can only be read by a cobol program, for any other operation it returns file code 93..
so if anyother way than please tell.. |

What does CEMT I FI show for the attributes of the file?
Furthermore, you don't load a sequential file into a TDQ -- if the TDQ is an extrapartition transient data queue, then merely issuing the READQ TD in CICS will bring in the first existing record of the file. |

its showing( ope ena ..) thats y i m not able to use that file in a cobol code..
pls tell how will a TDQ know which file to read,
actually i have very less idea of TDQ,
and can u pls tell me if i m submitting a job 4m cics program(itdc region)
then is there any way to get notification on cics screw,
also how can i write jes msgs( JESJCL ,JESMSGLG..) to any file.. |

When your CICS systems programmer installs the TDQ, the data set name is provided on the CEDA definition screen along with the DD name.
The types of questions you are asking strongly indicate that you need to work with your site support group, not us. Most sites have some standard CICS TDQ pointing to the internal reader that can be used to submit jobs, but the precise name varies from site to site. |

Is this a business requirement?
I find it hard to believe that the requirement is:
Start on a CICS Screen
Get a search value
Submit a batch job to read a sequential file
Return results to CICS screen
What exactly is the requirement? |

Hi Dave,

If i've read this correctly, the online code needs to read some data that is currently not available online.
Rather than this kludge, the data needs to be made available online. . .
imho . . . |

If you were creating such a 'tool', would you use a CICS screen?
I would use things like TSO, Rexx, ISPF Panel, Edit Macro.
If this is some sort of training exercise (L&T Infotech?),
why train this method?
Just my own view |

Hello,
Possibly because most/all users have cics logons while very few would have tso. . . |

why write a cics application to perform the 3.14 ISPF function?
it must be nice to work at a shop where there is absolutely no supervision whatsoever by anyone that knows anything about computers. |

Hi Dick/Dave,
Most of the shops i've worked with do not allow "end-users" access to tso/ispf. Actually, i'm not able to recall any that permit this access to non-technical users (several do allow users to look at "things" via ROSCOE. . .).
| Quote: |
| why write a cics application to perform the 3.14 ISPF function? |
I suspect there is more to the application than just this text search. Every time i've seem somethng like this, there is a database solution. For example if one is in the business of creating/shipping hazardous materials, something of a biggie is having the proper MSDS (Material Data Safety Sheet) which contains:
. Identity (name of substance)
. Physical Hazards (target organ)
. Health Hazards
. Routes of Body Entry
. Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL)
. Carcinogenic Factors (cancer causing)
. Safe-Handling Procedures
. Date of Sheet Preparation
. Control Measures (personal protective equipment)
. Emergency First Aid Procedures (emergency telephone number)
. Contact Information (for the preparer of the sheet)
. Special Instructions
and often "someone" wants to find certain "things" that are in multiple documents or some particular document.
Of course to help with performance when looking for values in the text, we parsed the documents and built a lexicon of every value and which documents contained that value. Searches were done against the lexicon, not the actual text. . . |

hey thanks to all but i managed to complete it ,
i would like to share what i did..
i used a cics program for generating a screen which accepts search keyword, data set in which it has to search , and a dataset which will have a full report of the keyword in dataset..
in my logic i m first deleting and again creating t dataset needed 4 report,
while search is being done by a batch program whose runjcl i m submitting via spool command in cics program,
This cics program write details regarding search record in sequential dataset given for report and also writes in a vsam file already having a fct entry in cics region first i m setting it to (close , disabled) then cics program is submitting runjcl for batch which modifies it then i again (open and enables ) it then it read the loction from that vsam and displays it on cics screen...
i know it looks stupid what i have done but it is working for me...
Thanks for help and support...
if u have any other idea of how to doing it then do tell me...
or if anybody is having any jcl to submit a batch program calling exci using exec cics link command then pls send me that jcl..
thanks,
Ankit
