Hi all,

For educational reasons I am trying to write a program which reads from a database , loads a ts queue and then show contents in a separate transaction by pages.
I am stuck in the loading process. Queue elements are an array of text data.
My write queue command is

EXEC CICS WRITEQ TS QUEUE ('TEXT-QUEUE')
FROM QUEUE-ARRAY
NUMITEMS (CA-NUM-ITEMS)
RESP (RESP-CODE)
END-EXEC

The program gives a compile error for this (exec cics was found but cics compiler option was not in effect). I have cics statements before and they are translated ok so I assume my writeq command has some errors.

Any ideas?

The manual says QUEUE is 1 to 8 characters.

Did you not look at the manual before you posted here? If so, did you notice that FROM(data-area) is the syntax -- NOT FROM data-area? You've made two syntax errors in one EXEC CICS statement, neither of which needed more than a short perusal of the manual to uncover. This forum is for professionals -- you know, people who read the manual? Perhaps you should stop posting here and start posting in Beginners and Students Forum instead?
