Explain the exact situation, when to use CALL, XCTL and LINK?

Answer Posted / qasim

1- We do XCTL to another program and we do not want to
return.
2- We do LINK to another program and we do want to return.
3- We do CALL to another program and we do want to return,
and we use it if we need to pass and return more
information than what COMMAREA is holding by the "USING"
option in the CALL.
this is the exact use of above 3 keywords.
