Hello,

You need to ask someone who supports your cics region(s).

Multiple transactions might invoke the same program. . .

I dont have access to CEMT.

Is there some other way(other than going to CICS support) to get the Transaction Id that is associated with the Cobol-Cics Module.

There's only a few ways that I know of to find out the transaction associated with a program:
1. Use CEMT online
2. Use CEDA, CEDB, or CEDC online
3. Look at a CSD file extracted from the online system
4. Ask a CICS support person
5. In the program, display (in some form) the EIBTRNID variable

I'm only referred to as William when the State Trooper walks to my car window, I give him my license and he says "William, do you know how fast you were going"? icon_eek.gif icon_eek.gif icon_eek.gif

Often, the next question is "Why were you going so fast?".

Heard that one fellow got out of a ticket by answering the Why question with "My first wife ran off with a Stste Trooper and i was afraid you were bringing her back" . . . icon_cool.gif
