Y2k, OV/400 & Shared Folders question

["Joe Teff" <jteff19@xxxxxxx>]

This was sent to me by a colleague:

>compliant. L know that I have heard that Office Vision

>Shared Folders.

This client is using V3R7. My first comment was that I was
sure that V3R7 (like V3R2) was Y2K compliant. I also said
that V3R7 is obsolete and should be upgraded to V4. I
told him that I knew nothing of OV/400 not being Y2K
compliant and it was being phased out because Domino
was a much better solution (I also seem to remember a
recent magazine article that said OV/400 had been given
a repreive). I don't see how the demise of OV/400 has
anything to do with the QDLS file system anyway.

Can anyone shed some light here?   TIA
