Answer / sumanth toom
Suppose the map's variable at which you want to place the
cursor is X, then move -1 to XL.
Note, if you move -1 to more than one locations, say XL, YL
and ZL, then the cursor is positioned at the first field
(among x,y&z) it encouteres in the map definition.

Answer / gagandeep sharma
THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT WAYS:
RELATIVE AND SYMBOLIC METHOD:
1. relative method
EXEC CICS SEND
MAPSET(mapset name)
MAP(mapname)
CURSOR(167)
END-EXEC.Each row 80 bytes are calculated.
2. Symbolic method:
MOVE -1 TO TO N02L; N02 is field where cursor is to
position. -1 IS STANDARD VALUE
