That is true, but I am not going to even attempt to try an OS upgrade
having any program that shows up on the ANZOBJCNV.

Help Systems and other products normally are supported at the current
version and 1 or 2 of the previous versions. I would suspect that these
programs that I am seeing compiled at V3R6 would not be supported at
V3R6 anymore by a vendor.

I just don't want to run into a situation where we have programs that do
not run after we upgrade.

If a program is no longer needed for 6.1 or V5R4 or V5R3, then IMO it
should be removed from the product and the vendor needs to state what
version of their product is supported for IBM's version of the OS.


Thanks.

subject: Re: 6.1 - READY?

Just because a few programs do not "pass" the ANZOBJCVN tool does not
imply that the product will not run correctly at V6R1.

Some software products detect what version/release of OS/400 or i5/OS
they are running under, and conditionally call some programs and not
others, based on that information.

In particular, many tools do this so they can ship the same version of
their product that will run on older releases of OS/400, and will also
take advantage of newer i5/OS APIs that were not present or had reduced
functionaility in older versions of OS/400.
