AI Explanation

To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) Yes - This option is incorrect because QSAM (Sequential Access Method) files cannot be accessed directly from CICS (Customer Information Control System).

Option B) Using AIX we can access in CICS - This option is incorrect because AIX (Advanced Interactive eXecutive) is an operating system and is not directly related to accessing QSAM files in CICS.

Option C) Using Keys we can access QSAM in CICS - This option is incorrect because accessing QSAM files in CICS does not involve the use of keys.

Option D) No - This option is correct because QSAM files cannot be accessed from CICS.

The correct answer is D) No. QSAM (Sequential Access Method) files cannot be accessed directly from CICS.
