Hi all,
I am calling a Cobol subroutine from an Easytrieve program. Is there a known 
limit to the amount of data that can be exchanged in this scenario?

I'm running into two limitations

We wrote test programs to test easytrieve calling a sub program with a linkage 
section of 44,000 bytes.  
The sub program just moves working storage initialized to all X’s to the 
linkage section.  The sub program runs fine when called by a COBOL program but 
will ABEND when called by easytrieve.  When we lower the size of the linkage 
section in the sub program to 34,000 bytes, it will run from easytrieve but it 
gives an abend IEA705I ERROR DURING FREEMAIN SYS CODE = 878-18 when I try to 
display the data.

Thanks!
