If I want to create a class file - I understand that I 1)Create the file and save it with the .java extension 2)The .java file has to be compiled so it then becomes a .class file. How do I complile the file to become a class file? Do I place the .java file in the /lib/ dir of the application server? Sorry for the stupid newbie question Mark

You have to use the javac command to invoke the compiler to turn a .java file into a .class file. (If using Tomcat) you then place the .class file in the lib directory. Kyle
