OBJ installation:

- Create in MVS a sequential file, for example 'MYUSER.PROGRAM.OBJ'
  with RECFM=FB and LRECL=80, for example of 1 cylinder.

- SEND obj module from PC to MVS in this file in BINARY form, with your 
  3270 emulation; the most important thing is a binary transfer (therefore 
  without ASCII CRLF) in a file with record length of 80 bytes.
  Use this PC command (in a PC with IBM/PCOMM 4.1 3270 emulation installed):

     SEND CICSVSAM.OBJ 'MYUSER.PROGRAM.OBJ'

- Prepare a Job to Linkedit transferred obj in a load library visible by
  CICS; use LINKEDIT.JCL as example: fit this JCL to your needs changing
  library names

- Submit linkedit job to create load module; output library must be a
  load library used by CICS address space.

- Complete installation defining program and transid in PPT and PCT CICS
  tables: see manual for details.
