RE: Burned by SAVCHGOBJ

["Ted Barry" <TBARRY@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Folks,

I have INDEED confirmed there were several objects that changed since my last 
*NONSYS and no other SAVxxxxx have been run other than SAVCHGOBJ.  My nonsys 
was run on 3/3 and several objects from our payroll library were changed on 
3/10, 3/13, 3/18, 3/21 and these objects were NEVER picked up by SAVCHGOBJ.  
Might want to sanity check your procedures.  I will NEVER use it again.  I've 
heard the horror stories for the past 25+ years and always thought it was 
somebody else and it would never happen to me.  OOPS!

What is not accumulative?

SAVCHGOBJ gets all the changes that occured since the last save (be it a
SAVSYS, SAVLIB or a SAVCHGOBJ).

It is not necessarily cumulative since the last SAVLIB.
