You might need to set your classpath to point to where your class is.
Do you have a classpath set now?
What operating system are you using?

Open a DOS window and type
SET
and press enter. It should tell you about all of your environment variables. There should be one called CLASSPATH. If there isn't, you need to make one.
I put all of my java source in C:\Java. If you do the same, you should set your classpath like this:
SET CLASSPATH=C:\JAVA
and press enter.

Thanks a lot Mr. Wheaton. I set up the classpath as you told me to and my programs run without any problem now.
Iam very grateful to you for your precious time. Thanks once again.
I would like to ask you one more thing, which is as follows,
Kindly tell me the procedure (ie. the steps involved) to run a java applet.

The JDK brings the �appletviewer�. It will scan a text file for the <APPLET> tag and process it. I think it will open a separate window for every APPLET tag that it finds.
One trick I learned from Bruce Eckel is to include commented code like this in the *.java source file:
//<APPLET... CODE=XXX ... >
Then I run the appletviewer on the *.java source file. That way you have the applet test �HTML� code in the same file as the source class without the need for a separate HTML file.
My $0.02

Tony's answer pretty much covers how to get started.
The cattle drive doesn't have any applet stuff, so if you want to learn more, like how to pull your applet up in Netscape, post your question to the applets forum.

Wow - I'm not sure I can answer that. Core Java is either that lousy series of books or else we're talking about the language without any of the libraries. Or maybe we're talking about Java with the core libraries and not the extended libraries or any third party libraries.
Does this help?
