Thanks Steve, this is probably the case on this.
I will verify all objects with support.
Help Systems does do a very good job of handling OS compatibility
issues.
There are probably just a few old objects out there.
Pete, I agree totally with what you mentioned.
Rich, I would like to believe vendors & think that mostly this is a case
of old objects that aren't needed anymore that are still in the
products.
If that is the case, then we should be instructed to remove the old
objects.
I want a clean ANZOBJCNV report.
Thanks.

James,
Most of our (Help Systems) products are 6.1 compliant. I know that some
products may have some obsolete objects that are not 6.1 compliant. I
have
heard that we may create cleanup programs to remove these obsoleted
objects
in the future. Feel free to call support with specific questions.

Rob,
You are right, but how are we the community to know if this is a
program that isn't required or one that is required just in some certain
instances (like every time the OS release changes). I think vendors
should
clean up their crap and not leave a mess behind, otherwise all the
System
Admins are scratching their heads wondering how I have a 6.1 compliant
version with programs that have no observability or creation data.

Speaking from a vendor's perspective, Mark Waterbury had the right
idea in
an earlier post. It is a fact of life that vendors do have to
support
multiple OS release levels and objects that don't pass muster with
IBM's
tool may, in fact, be not in use for a 6.1 customer.
In all cases with third party software, check with the vendor. If
the
vendor tells you that their code is 6.1 compliant, then why not just
believe them.
