Dear friends.
How I can Start a CDBM transaction whit appropriate data.
In 3270 terminal screen when we typing "CDBM/DISPLAY CCTL ALL" the IMS CCTL or thread displayed. I want to get the returned data on screen for further processing. I was used the "EXEC CICS START TRANSID" but I can't send appropriate data(/DISPLAY CCTL ALL) whit CDBM and get the returned data on screen.
Can anybody help me.
Thanks.

I'm not familiar with CDBM but most likely it is receiving data through "RECEIVE" command and not through "RETRIEVE" like most CICS internal transactions, so you can't really call it and send parameters through the FROM or COMMAREA parameters to the START command.

You will most likely have to look into another solution, or use FEPI as a solution to simulate the terminal sending the command for the display.[/code]

Once again you try to execute IMS (master) console commands in a CICS environment that will display on those consoles. And that is (what i said before) not going to work.
