Book Description

December 1992
Ever felt buried in IBM manuals? It seems like you need stacks of them, close at hand, if you want to be an effective CICS programmer. Not just the CICS manuals...but the ones on VSAM, JCL, and TSO too. Because, frankly, there is just too much you have to know to do your job well; you can't get along without a lot of reference material. That's why Doug Lowe decided to write this book. In it, he's collected all the information you need to have at your fingertips, and organised into 12 sections that make in easy for you to find what you're looking for.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very complete CICS reference, November 20, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Cics Programmer's Desk Reference (Paperback)
This is an EXCELLENT CICS reference. It's really the only book you'll need if you have CICS projects at work. It has handy programming examples, a complete INDEX (novel concept, eh?), and detailed explanations.

One word review: Excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best CICS Manual by miles, January 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Cics Programmer's Desk Reference (Paperback)
Doug Lowe is a great writer/teacher. The book is well indexed and anyone could understand his writing. He tells you what you need and also show you examples. Trash the IBM manuals, it's all here. There are more copies of Doug's book in our office than any other writer.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Book Has Everything I Need to Know About CICS, April 4, 1998
This review is from: The Cics Programmer's Desk Reference (Paperback)
Once you begin to modify CICS programs, you soon find out all about the little idiosyncrasies and problems inherent in anything as complex as online programming. The CICS Desk Reference contains practically all Command-Level CICS commands and error explanations, and shows many examples on using the commands. Although it deals with COBOL programming, Assembly programmers can find many answers here, too.
