Edit Transient Data Queue Record (5.3.2)
Related Tpoics
The Edit Transient Data Queue Record screen (5.3.2) allows access to a record in a CICS transient data queue. Because transient data queues are sequential data sets, a record can only be read from an input queue or written to an output queue. In other words, records are not updated in a queue. Data can be displayed in character, vertical hexadecimal, or dump format. File mapping is available on this screen. See USING for more information on file mapping.
Access this screen by typing the number 2 on the Transient-Data-Menu-5-3, typing 3.2 on the File-Utility-Menu-5, or as described in Transferring Between Screens.

Input Fields
QUEUE NAME
Name of the queue that is accessed. Queues can be indirect, that is, point to another queue. In this case, Code Debug CICS displays the actual destination queue above and to the right of the entered queue name. The attributes used to access this queue are obtained from the real destination queue.
HEX/DEC-OFFSET
Displays the current offset within the column’s data. This value is always relative to 0. The data display begins at this offset. This field may be modified. The value entered must be in the range of 0 to the decimal value displayed in the RECLN field. When HEX-OFFSET is displayed, the value will be between 0 and the hexadecimal equivalent of the decimal value displayed in the RECLN field. In addition, when DEC-OFFSET is displayed, a hexadecimal value with a leading positive (+) sign may be entered instead, e.g. 80 or +50 are equivalent.
ADD-OFFSET
Use with the HEX/DEC-OFFSET field to provide a new starting offset into the I/O area. The entered value is added to the value in the HEX/DEC-OFFSET field to yield a new starting offset value. If the entered value has a leading minus sign (-), the entered value is subtracted from the value in the HEX/DEC-OFFSET field.
If the display mode is HEX DUMP mode, only hexadecimal values can be entered. If the display mode is character (HEX OFF) or vertical hexadecimal (HEX ON), the value can be entered either in decimal or hexadecimal. This can be done by preceding the value with a plus sign (+). To add a negative offset, precede the value by a minus sign (-). A value preceded by a minus sign is treated as decimal when in HEX ON or HEX OFF mode and as hexadecimal when in HEX DUMP mode.
I/O area
Data from the Code Debug CICS I/O area that can be displayed in four modes. Each mode supports different scrolling commands, as shown in File Utility Scrolling Commands. For more information, see Using the Code Debug CICS I/O Area.
Output Fields
VALID COMMANDS
List of primary commands available for use against this queue.
RECLN
Current length of the I/O area. The length may exceed the maximum record size for a particular resource. In this case, only the data up to the maximum record length is used. The I/O area may be truncated if any I/O command is issued.
MAX RECLN
Maximum record size used for the current CICS file resource being accessed.
RECFM
Record format. Valid entries are:
- F: Fixed-length record
- V: Variable-length record.
