Correct me if I'm wrong, but VS Cobol 2.4 has a distictive IBM 360/370/390/
zOs ring. Why are you asking about this on a website that deals
exclusively with the x86 archtecture. It would be better if you tried to
find a site more appropriate to this question. FWIW, you cannot convert
assembly back into high level language, to much information is lost
during the compilation to machine language. Try your luck at the link
provided.
