I do server side java & havent even looked at a dos app in eons! Well my son is taking Java in school & he wanted to know how the heck to clear the screen from his Java prog. He basically doesnt like seeing the menu he built when the user makes a selection.....I cant for the life of me think of how to do it. I know it should probably use a native method though....any thoughts or help here? Thanks much.

Read this .
Probably the best way is just to println 30 times or so - at least this is quaranteed to WORK :roll: .
 
It's exactly the same and completely different as this tiny ad:
