That's exactly what I mean; you can run a ovtopofix -U to update the
times and get the object onto the map. You can find the complete
instructions on how to display a node on pages 2-5 through 2-7 in the
NetView Diagnosis Guide. This only works if the object is in the
topology database.
Good luck!!!

Thanks for such a fast reply.
Sad news though. We have only just moved to 5.1 and I thought
5.0 was buggy enough.
What exactly do you mean by map maintenance?
Is that the same as ovtopofix?

John.
