Is there a way to obtain a copy of the ACEE for a user (not
the current user) from within CICS? I am using 'EXEC CICS
ADDRESS ACEE(R12)', but this just gets me the ACEE of the

other than the one running the transaction in order to get a
user's name and connected groups.
I won't pretend to have much CICS expertise, and so I
hesitate to suggest this since John Chase did not, but how
about having your transaction start another transaction to
run under the ID you want to query, and have that second
transaction return the data to you somehow?
Unfortunately, none of the EXEC CICS commands seems able to return the
information the OP is seeking. Indeed, it appears one cannot even
retrieve one's own group associations except via the ADDRESS ACEE( )
command, then reading the ACEE.
True, but if he can start another transaction to run under the desired
ID, could that transaction address its own ACEE, extract the information
directly, and return it to the original transaction in some way?
