I would suggest upgrading your MASM 5.1 to MASM 6.0, which directly supports
OS/2 2.0 and the flat memory model (OS/2 2.0 issues with MASM 6.0 is even 
mentioned in the manual).  The libraries for OS/2 2.0 are NOT included with
the package, however...I would suggest purchasing IBM's Toolkit to get the
header files/libraries.  MASM 6.0 is the best Assembler out right now for
OS/2 (one of very few, unfortunately).
