In CICS , you don’t have you open any VSAM file, it should be opened already.

Refer this to see how it’s done if needed to be done.

Hi,

Thanks for the response.

But I m getting the compilation error for the updatestatus.

Code:
'UPDATE' KEYWORD REQUIRES 1 SUB-OPERAND(S). STATEMENT NOT TRANSLATED.


Can you please suggest??

Please copy paste the errors going forward as screenshots consumes great amount of space. You can look for CICS region job jeslogs for more details on this error.

Please look at the Manual here to see the correct syntax. You need to use at least one option but again reread what I said above.
