There are three approches to cursor positioning.
1)static positioning.
by placing "IC" in the attrib parameter of DFHMDF for a
particuler field.
EX. DFHMDF POS=(3,16)
ATTRIB=(UNPROT,FSET,IC)
LENGTH=8
2)Dynamic symbolic positioning.
by using the symbolic name of the field
MOVE -1 TO THE LENGTH FIELD.
3)USING THE CURSOR IN THE SEND MAP.
EX. EXEC CICS SEND
MAP('............')
MAPSET('.........')
CURSOR(100)
END-EXEC.
the cursor will be placed at the position 100 of the
terminal relative to zero.......

EIBCPOSN ( from EIBBLK) gives a number
int(EIBCPOSN /80) + 1 gives line #
1 + EIBCPOSN - 80 *(int(EIBCPOSN /80)) gives column #

Answer / amiya ranjan

You can get ur cursor position from EIBCPOSN.
give
COPY DFHAID in working storage.
from eibcposn you will get your cursor position.
suppose you have 80 columns in your screen and if your cursor is in 2nd row and 3rd column then your eibcposn is 80+3 =83
so by dividing it with 80 you will get 1 and adding 1 you will get your row number. Similarly you can get your column position by calculating with above formula given by Pof.

thanks.
