Thanks for the idea of trying init_main_dp and IGZERRE together, I will try that and see if it flies.
These are non-LE-enabled assembler main programs (and some E15/E35 exits) calling VS COBOL II subroutines. Some of those COBOL subroutines can and will be recompiled to eCOBOL 4.2 first and later eCOBOL 5.2, but some cannot be recompiled so easily due to their widespread use elsewhere in the shop and the resource constraints on getting all using applications to test in one or even multiple QA cycles.

I'm unclear - are these old and new programs COBOL *main* programs or subroutines? They sound like main programs, but... I'm speculating here - never tried it, but if you are desperate... If you use CEEPIPI init_main_dp for the new COBOL environment, will it complain that there is already an active LE environment? What if you call CEEPIPI init_main_dp first, and then IGZERRE? In other words how does LE know (and why does it care in the PIPI case) that you have another environment active?
