Hi

I am getting return code 0008 while compiling a CICS module. The error is in TRN (Translation) Step and it says

Code:
MESSAGE NUMBER  SEVERITY  LINE NUMBER     MESSAGE                               
DFH7053I               C        00175         OPTION 'LENGTH' IS NOT VALID AND IS IGNORED.


Surprisingly I wrote another new (CICS/COBOL) program and compiled and it went fine.

I am not able to understand the difference .

Thanks

Code'd

That's the COBOL compile listing. Are you using the integrated translator? Or a separate step (I think the latter)? You need the output from the step before the compile. The copybook (and any others) will cause different line-numbers to be used for the compile.

There's something wrong with an EXEC CICS statement that includes the word LENGTH.

Thanks Bill. That Helps. I coded LENGTH while doing STARTBR on a dataset, which was causing this. Now I have corrected and compilation was ok.
