The problem whether (2201) Oljato is an asteroid or an evolved comet is still open although many physical and dynamical aspects of this enigmatic object have been examined till now. The paper presents results of the new determination of its orbit made on the base of the complete observational material, covered the period from 1931 to 1993, and selected and weighted according to mathematical criteria. It turns out that the value of the root- mean-square (RMS) residual of all astrometric data for the nongravitational solution is significant smaller than in the case of the pure gravitational one. It means that Oljato probably shows the residual cometary activity.
