Yes, probably.   Unless he wants to actually get down to the level
of writing some way to transfer it from system to system.   In other
words, this is something that IBM expressly doesn't support.

No, it's not the same thing at all.   He's not trying to COMPILE it to
a *PRV release, he's trying to SAVOBJ to a *PRV release.

So, that would be the same thing as compiling a VB6 program on WinXP and
expecting it to install and run on Win2000.   Which DOES WORK.   In fact,
you can run a VB6 program on Win95!   If there are APIs which aren't
available on Win95, the installer program will install them when it
installs the program.

However, that's not the way things were intended to work on OS/400.
In some ways that's good, in other ways it's frustrating, but that's
what IBM decided to do, so you're right:   He'll have to either get
over it or use a different OS.
