RE: A newbie question.

Hmm.... I'm thinking you may be incorrectly
representing your environment to us, because
what you've shown us so far is correct.

A couple of things that are a little more esoteric
that could be related:

Your class name inside the msgsendsample.java file is
correctly cased isn't it? I.e. there's not something like
class MsgSendSample
inside the msgsendsample file is there?

You did use BINARY ftp to put those parts up
to the AS/400 right?
i.e. they are tagged as ascii (CCSID 819) when you look
at them with WRKLNK '/etbjava' and use option 8 on
them.

Did you try to use javac from qshell on the
msgsendsample.java source code or just
run it from there.

Did you try to use the JAVA CL command
from the AS/400 command line and manually put
in the classpath on the keyword?
