As i know, cics programs always pseudo-conversational.... i.e, it wont wait for users response.

CICS programs fired by user request and gives the response and end.

When CICS programs uses techniques like TSQ/ TDQ/COMMA AREA to trasfer data between transactions/ between two cics programs, they apear to be in conversational mode.


suggestion : please use correct subject line while starting new thread. dont use common words like CICS question. Thanks.
