Could you explain a little more of the calling order? When you quote from the eCOBOL V5.3 manual, I tend to get confused as to what you are trying to do.
Assm --> VS COBOL II eCOBOL V5.3 --> Assm --> VS Cobol II VS Cobol should run as the SCEERU N libraries will contain the required modules. I am not sure why this may not work.
