Sarav,

You can create a list in either of the following ways:

1.Use CEDA ADD command to add a group to a list. If the specified list does not exist, it is created. check this link for a detailed explanation of the ADD command

2.Use CEDA APPEND command to append the contents of one list to another list. If the appended-to list does not exist, it is created, containing the contents of the first list. check this link for a detailed explanation of the APPEND command.

Hope this helps...

This depends also on which level of CICS you have. Many of the formerly compiled tables can be converted using the batch tools to create your groups. There are also many factors that determine how you should build your groups, like shared CSD files between CICS systems, logical groups, etc. That is why it is unusual that you would want to create a new grplist. A grplist ist almost always copied from an existing grplist and then modified. For example: the IVPLIST is delivered by IBM and is used as a base for creating a new CICS. If you are migrating from a former version of CICS you will already have your grplists available and will just want to create a modified grplist. SO, the question is, why do you want to create a new grplist ?
