madan777in,

You CAN use STOP RUN and GOBACK can be used in CICS Cobol Programs (depending on the version of the Compiler). They are both equivalent to an EXEC CICS RETURN (without the TRANID option).

The old compilers do NOT allow stoprun statement in CICS program.
It is a norm to use EXEC CICS RETURN which will transfer control back to whatever called it - either another program or CICS itself.

Hope this helps...

Cheers
