hi,
I'am getting a MAPFAIL condition, what could be the reason for it ??
can anyone tell me the difference between Fset & Frset , i feel these options could be causing the MAPFAIL condidtion.

thanks
ganesh

gans79,

Click on the "Quick Manuals" link on top of this page and browse the manuals under CICS. The CICS Programming Guide and CICS Language Reference should answer all your questions.

FSET specifies that the modified data tag (MDT) for this field should be set when the field is sent to a terminal. Specification of FSET causes the 3270 to treat the field as though it has been modified. On a subsequent read from the terminal, this field is read, whether or not it has been modified. The MDT remains set until the field is rewritten without ATTRB=FSET, or until an output mapping request causes the MDT to be reset.

Either of two sets of defaults may apply when a field to be displayed on a 3270 is being defined but not all parameters are specified. If no ATTRB parameters are specified, ASKIP and NORM are assumed. If any parameter is specified, UNPROT and NORM are assumed for that field unless overridden by a specified parameter.


FRSET specifies that the modified data tags (MDTs) of all fields currently in the 3270 buffer are to be reset to an unmodified condition (that is, field reset) before map data is written to the buffer. This allows the DFHMDF macro with the ATTRB operand to control the final status of any fields written or rewritten in response to a BMS command.
Hope this helps...

Cheers
