Nothing is wrong with Eclipse - just when I installed it and tried to do something (and at this point I don't even remember what I was doing) it kept asking for plugins I didn't have loaded. I finally threw in the towel and uninstalled it pending locating some documetnation on what to load including plugins. > > > I have not found a clear document via google.

Very basic but met my needs. Also I am in a BSIT program and beginning programming class next week. Coupled together I should get some of this to come together.
