  ****************************************************************
  When using the change management batch interface to compare
  the source and target, then perform an import and analyze of
  the change, there are two sections with the title 'Object
  Comparison Report' in the joblog. This causes confusion for
  the user. The two sections should contain titles which
  pertain to the data being displayed.
  

Problem conclusion

• Problem has been resolved.
  
  For Object compare, the report starts with:
     "CMDELTA OBJECT COMPARISON REPORT"
  and ends with:
      "GOC2CMP - Ended normally in CMDELTA mode'.
  
  For the Analyze compare, the report starts with:
     "ANALYZE OBJECT COMPARISON REPORT"
  and ends with:
     "GOC2CMP - Ended normally in ANALYZE mode'.
