Hi!
what happens when we code 'send map(mapname) mapset(mapsetname)' in cobol program ?

What do you think happens?

I suggest you refer to the CICS language reference manual.

SEND MAP command is an EXEC CICS command used to send:
1. the physical map,
2. the symbolic map,
3. both maps together.

The command is:
EXEC CICS SEND
MAP ('mapname')
MAPSET ('mapset name')
[MAPONLY/DATAONLY]
[FROM (data area)]
[ERASE/ERASEUP]
END-EXEC.

MAPONLY specifies only physical map to be sent and DATAONLY specifies only symbolic map to be sent. To send both maps together, omit both.

Thank U
