I think we can do by just calling the module passing the parameters as if they are of same language.

eg: calling pl1 pgm from Cobol pgm.

CALL PL1PGM using parm1, parm2

calling cobol pgm from Pl1 pgm

CALL CBLPGM(parm1, parm2);

Pls Correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks
Vik.

You can call by using reentrant from Cobol to PlI or else can call using a prog.
