Hello everyone,
Somebody can explain what the difference when I call a program in CICS using XCTL and CICS Link?
Thank you

Hello,

You might think of an XCTL as a "go to" (goes away and stays gone) and a link as a "perform" (goes away and comes back).

Dick has just told you the difference. If you need something different from that then you should specify what.
