Answer / sudhanshu
Link is used to link one cics program to other and expected
CONTROL to be returned back to calling program.
In link, if any changes is made to called program, only
called program or sub program will be compiled. main
program will not be compiled. main program will be link
edited at run time.

Answer / sushree
Link is used to link one CICS program to another which is
at a level belwo the called program. In other words , one
higher leveel program calling another lower level program,
but doesnot expect the command to be returned to the called
program.
We have to use return in that case.
