occurs.
- HILIGHT(data-area)

If this command was issued by a user transaction that was started
by a 3270 bridge transaction, the value returned is the termid of
the bridge facility.
If the CICS region

when the principal facility is one of the following:
- An MRO session to another CICS system
- An LU6.1 session to another CICS or IMS™ system
