Explanation

In CICS BMS, cursor positioning techniques include Initial (default position), Direct (absolute row/column), and Symbolic (using field name in symbolic map). There is no 'Physical cursor positioning' technique - cursor positioning is always done logically through symbolic references or absolute coordinates, not through physical map constructs.

EIBCPOSN in the CICS Execution Interface Block (EIB) specifically stores the screen cursor position. EIBCALEN contains the length of the communication area (COMMAREA), EIBAID holds the attention identifier (which key or function key the user pressed), and EIBCURS is not a standard CICS EIB field.

  2. False

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The listed items are inconsistent event names and thus NOT valid form events. Standard form event naming conventions are camelCase like 'onClick', 'onDblClick', 'onKeyDown' - not mixed variations. The presence of both 'onDblClick' and 'double-click' makes this list invalid and inconsistent. Proper event naming requires consistent convention.
