Newbie help... importing classes

[Biscuits]

Hi all,

im new to java and am currently working my way thru a 'dummies' style book... in one of the exercises, it requires you to import 'java.util.calender' class but i cant find it and javac keeps going nuts cause it cant find the Calender class...im using JRE v1.3 (which the same book uses too apparently)... can anyone help me on this one?

Cheers,

The class name ist java.util.Calender not java.util.calender Java classnames (and other identifiers) are case sensitive!

Unfortunatly I already tried that. My program at the moment looks like this:

import java.util.Calender;
import java.util.calender;
Class Dave {
}

and both lines javac spits out an error at the calender keyword saying it cannot resolve the symbol. Where java.util.calender located and am i meant to specify a path to it??

Thanks again,
