Can we use a variable name in CICS RECEIVE MAP commad

While using CICS RECEIVE MAP can we use a variable name in the data-area(i.e. in the INTO clause) instead of giving the symbolic input map name. I have 5 maps in a program, for each map receive i m using separate CICS RECEIVE commands. I tried using a pointer variable which actually holds the address of the symbolic input map name in the INTO clause. But there was a left truncation of 17 bytes and the variables from the map are mapped wrongly into the symbolic input map. Can anyone help on this

Thanks
Andrew

Hello,

After the RECEIVE, move the data to where you want it.
