Re: RUNJVA problems

No joy. I created a folder and copied the class file to it and ran it 
with a "classpath" parameter that pointed to where the jt400.jar was 
located and I still got the same error.  Even dumped jt400.jar into the 
current folder and it didn't work.

Something is up.  I just need to figure out what.
