What seem to be happening is for concurrent user as the address obtained is the same they seem to be stepping on each other.

How similar? The post you quote is about some sub-modules which are used by both CICS and Batch. The problem you are having would be irrelevant to that.

Rather than "similar" why not explain what it is that you are trying to achieve, as has been suggested already.

To my understanding you havent tested concurrency, and what you say is just what you think and not what really is happening. There is NO WAY different tasks using the same program can get the same storage area and or addresses. Thats what all of us already told you. When you run the transactions serially, its very likely you get the same storage as the previous task, when the system is not heavily loaded, but who cares?
If you dont beleive what experienced people and documentation from IBM tells you. why do you post on this forum?

where are you getting the user ids from.????
and why not just pass them in a working storage area to the linked program..???
from what I see you are going about this in the wrong way.
