CICS Gurus,

I have a requirement to determine, from batch, if a program has been "NEW 
COPIED" in a specific CICS region.  We have a CICS Tran that will display the 
information, (i.e. date/time stamp), which is what I need to compare to the 
link date/time of the first (matching) module in the LOADLIB concatenation.  
Our CICS Tran actually calls:

EXEC  CICS INQUIRE PROGRAM(PRGNM) LOADPOINT(R3) ENTRYPOINT(R4)
      LANGDEDUCED(LANGCVDA) LENGTH(PGMSIZE)
      PROGTYPE(PGMTYPE) USECOUNT(USECNT) RESCOUNT(RESCNT)
      STATUS(PPTCVDA) COBOLTYPE(COBTYPE)
      RESP (RESPONE) RESP2 (RESPTWO)

Then it loads the address from LOADPT into register 1 and bumps off of it X'88' 
(136 bytes) and moves 20 bytes.


CKCOBLNG CLI   LANGCVDA+3,151          COBOL ?  (97)
         BNE   CKPLI                   NO
         MVC   LANGO,=C'COB'
         CLI   LOADSW,255              IS THERE A LOAD MODULE? (FF)
         BE    NOLOAD
         CLI   ENTRYPT,255             VALID ADDRESS?
         BE    CKCOB3                   NO
         L     R1,LOADPT              PLUG IN COMPILE DATE/TIME
         CLI   COBTYPE+3,151           VS COBOL? (97)
         BNE   CKCOB2                  NO
         MVC   CCDO(20),X'88'(R1)

Giving me the date/time stamp.  But this, of course, only works in the CICS 
Region.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to accomplish this from batch?

TIA,

PS, Go easy on me, as I have a tough time even spelling C I C S, let alone 
doing much in it.  And if there is a different list server on which I should be 
asking this question (like CICS), I apologize and ask for their address.  
Thanks again,
