Hi Wayne, I must thank you for this. I didn't think of that - for general use. However, Devplus launches from within the Remedy admin tool. I think I know how to workaround it though. What I'll try is to use the 1.4.2 as the general jre on my machine (i.e. set the system variable to point to 1.4.2) and "force" the other program which needs 1.6 in this manner. Let you know how that works (in case others are interested).
