typical problem in CICS

HI All,
I am facing some kind of typical problem in CICS. I have a program which is working fine in one of our CICS devel region. But the same program is not working in other region.
The problem what i am facing is, the program is not referencing the changed copybook. If i look in the compiler listing, it says the program is using the latest copybook but if i newcopy the load in CICS region and trigger, its still refering the old copybook.
Its the read statement which is giving error. The file length is in the copybook and when the read statement comes, the progrm still refering the old copybook length. I checked this in CEDF. The timestamp of the load in the loadlib and the cics region lib is same.
surprisingly, there are other progrms which used the same copybook for File length and they are working fine.
Please suggest how to get rid of this.
can anyone tell me how to check the newcopy progrm is the one which we have in system library ?

After changing the latest copy book, once again compile the program and give new copy in cics region. i think this will work.

Hello,

Might it be that an "old" version of the program is in some "earlier" library and so the enhanced version of the program is not the one loaded/new copied?
