Your classpath needs to include whereever the class file for a1 is. Also make sure that the capitalization of your java command matches the way it is in the class file (looks right but . . .)

Try running your program using this:

java -classpath . a1

The -classpath . specifies "look in THIS directory for a1".

Thanks Susan,
I was having the same problem with my DOS Promt. Your tip worked for me too. Cool! Does that mean my Autoexec.bat is using a different classpath?

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
