Answer / manish_cics
we can define multiple maps by BMS MAPSET. there is a rule
for d order of BMS macros which must be followed. that is ,
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=...
.
MM DFHMDF GRPNAME=DATE,POS=(6,46),LENGTH=2
.
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).
but TYPE=DSECT means symbolic map
TYPE=&SYSPARM physical and symbolic maps will be
generated at the time of assembly.
The rest are right in ans2.
