Re: getResource() problem

Thanks, Frances --

I've checked the case pretty carefully and it seems to be okay. 
foo.properties results in the MissingResourceException,
foo_en_US.properties works around the problem.  As I said, the
properties file is kept in the same .jar as my code.  This works fine on
both  WinNT and OS/390 but the exact same .jar file doesn't work on the
400.  So much for "write once, run everywhere".

Oh well, I'll wait for the PTFs to be applied.  If that doesn't work,
I'll try to switch to jdk 1.2 and see if that makes a difference.

Thanks,
Gary
