Keywords without parameters cannot be permuted if they start a statement. SEND TEXT NOEDIT, for example, must start with SEND
TEXT NOEDIT. TEXT or NOEDIT should not be placed after other statement’s keywords and parameters. The following statement
is invalid, for example:
EXEC CICS SEND TEXT LENGTH (10) NOEDIT
Generally, you can permute statement keywords with parameters in any order, keeping in mind that the first keyword should
not be permuted with the others. Below is a list of statements for which you cannot permute the second keyword. That is, the
