D Correct answer
Explanation

CICS (Customer Information Control System) does not directly support QSAM (Queued Sequential Access Method) files. QSAM is a traditional batch file access method for sequential datasets, while CICS uses its own file management methods like VSAM. CICS transactions cannot directly access QSAM files - they need alternative approaches.
