Hello Martin,

let me better explain my problem.

The called subroutine does nothing with CICS resources and is compiled
without the CICS translator.
I did not know what will happen with the working storage the subroutine
has defined for itself and will be used in the logic within the called
entry points.

As I said before, we run CICS/VSE, not CICS/TS.

Willi,

<< ...working storage ...>>

CICS comes in between INIT1 and INIT2 and allocates WS in CICS storage-
That is how it was with old COBOL. Newer versions have shifted the task
of aquiring storage from CICS to LE routines.

Since it is not restricted - (at least not that I can tell) I would open
a PMR with IBM- Either it is a known (but not documented) restriction
and gets documented because of your PMR or it should work and does not
because something is broken.

Thanks good: it occurs in VSE 2.7.

Lets see waht others have to say - and maybe Garry (from Perth) chimes in.

Martin
