with in one mapset defenition , the map definition can be
specified as many times as u wish. within one map
defeinition , d field definition can be specified as many
times as u wish. this rules as follows:

DFHMSD TYPE=DSECT OR MAP OR &SYSPARM <-- A MAPSET
DFHMDI ---------- <-- A MAP
DFHMDF ---------- <-- A FIELD
:
DFHMDI ---------
DFHMDF ---------
:
DFHMDI ---------
DFHMDF ---------

DFHMSD TYPE=FINAL
END

Answer / kumar

we can define multiple maps using BMS mapset
The DFHMSD macro defines a map set. A map set contains one
or more maps.


MAPSET DFHMSD....
.
.
MAP DFHMDI....
.
.
DD DFHMDF GRPNAME=DATE,POS=(6,40),LENGTH=2,ATTRB=...

YY DFHMDF GRPNAME=DATE,POS=(6,52),LENGTH=2
.
FIELD DFHMDF LENGTH=5,COLOR=GREEN,...
DFHMSD TYPE=FINAL

Answer / anna

Yes, we can define multiple maps by BMS MAPSET.
with in one mapset defenition we can have up to 7 or 9 maps
(better to have all maps are separetly).

generated at the time of assembly.

The rest are right in ans2.
