Sounds like you might have done this: set CLASSPATH=/path/to/biojava.jar javac myprogram.java java myprogram
What you need to do is this: set CLASSPATH=/path/to/biojava.jar javac -cp $CLASSPATH myprogram.java java -cp $CLASSPATH myprogram Also, check that your classpath only contains one reference to the jar file, not two or more, as having multiple references to copies in different locations has the same effect as not including it at all. cheers, Richard Richard Holland Bioinformatics Specialist GIS extension 8199 --------------------------------------------- This email is confidential and may be privileged.
