I just noticed this thread. Is your issue is that the SAS/C and other modules you mentioned are reentrant and therefore, according to z/OS processes, once loaded, subsequent LOAD/LINK/ATTACH etc. of a module with the same name will use that copy even if called from software at a different level? This makes testing of modules at different levels side by side virtually impossible. If so, then the dynamic STEPLIB product DYNASTEP has a feature that will allow you to request that a subsequent LOAD/LINK/ATTACH etc. search the STEPLIB/link list path instead of using the "in storage" copy. This path can be different for every ISPF screen using DYNASTEP. You can get more info at www.tonesoft.com.

Thomas,

STEPLIB from CBTTAPE works, I've tested it but its not
supported/recommended. There was a discussion about DYNAMIC STEPLIB last
year and Jim Mulder wrote:

The only supported mechanism in MVS for adding to the module library
search order within as address space is an ATTACH with a TASKLIB.  This is
the only supported way to set TCBJLB.
Any program which modifies TCBJLB in an existing TCB is wrong to do so.  I
would recommend against having any such
program installed on your system.
