Subject: Starting off with POI/HSSF

Hope everyone will bear with this newbie. I'm restarting this
thread as I haven't understood the replies up til now.


If I have placed the following jar files :

POI-3.0.1-FINAL-20070705.JAR
POI-CONTRIB-3.0.1-FINAL-20070705.JAR
POI-SCRATCHPAD-3.0.1-FINAL-20070705.JAR

in the directory /home/FOXWELL/java/jars what is the syntax
to set my classpath?

When I sign on, my current directory is /home/FOXWELL. I
don't know if that makes a difference to what is set in the classpath.

Thanks.

I am not very i literate, but somewhat moreso with Java. You must specify each of the jar files separately in your CLASSPATH. E.g.

export -s CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:/home/FOXWELL/java/jars/POI-3.0.1-FINAL-20070705.JAR:\
/home/FOXWELL/java/jars/POI-CONTRIB-3.0.1-FINAL-20070705.JAR:\
/home/FOXWELL/java/jars/POI-SCRATCHPAD-3.0.1-FINAL-20070705.JAR
