java -jar myfile.jar

>> and hos do I set the class path here..??

for "java" command line switch help

java -?

-pete

did not understand that last part pete

what he says is, if you want to know the various options the "java" command takes, simple type

java -?

on a command line...

BTW, just typing &quot;java <return> &quot; works the same!
