S0C7 is a DATA Exception Error, such as alphabet in arithmetic.
S0C4 is Protection Exception Error, such as Invalid Poiter Value.

Do you think S0C7 in Calling prog making an Impace in Main.

Check out for the offset value for S0C4, & go thru the log. Figure out the area & then only you'll be able to say anything.

Try to find out whether the 0C4 was caused after the program B was called. If so, then it is possible that program B abended with an 0C7 (data exception) and some abend handling routine returned the control back to the calling program where it abended with a 0C4 (protection exception).

You can find the point where the 0C4 occurred from the SYSUDUMP.
