Hi, Just few questions as a beginner in Java: 1.- What can I find inside jar files, classes...? 1.- Can I "unzip" a jar file in order to see its contents?. If it is possible, how can I do this? Thanks in advance. Jose.

Hi, JAR file will contain the class files and auxiliary resources associated with applets and applications. You can view the contents of jar file using c:\jdk\bin>jar xf <jar-file name>. The jar tool can be found in the bin directory of of JDK. Hope this helps
