Dear list: Ok, never mind, I manage to fix this problem using the hammer. For other people that might have the same problems, don't believe to the OOoBean documentation, is completely wrong, you have to add ALL the jars with your application, and not only distributing the jars, but also by inserting the classes into your final jar distribution file. I do the following: - unpack the following libraries: officebean.jar unoil.jar unoloader.jar ridl.jar jur.jar juh.jar - Pack them all into a single directory, always keeping the package hierarchy. - Create an ant task to copy the previous files into my final applet jar. Also, one must watch the META-INF file for every jar, because some interesting directives are placed. This is how I found that the unoloader.jar library was a must, because it was placed in the ClassPath directive for one of the libraries. Also, there is a directive that I set in the final distribution jar, as I said, you must see all the META-INF files in order to copy all the directives that may be (Note that the ClassPath is not necessary). ... and voilá!! everything works nice!! I can create an applet that loads from a Java Web Container (Tomcat 6) and embeds OO into a web browser. Of course, the OO must been correctly initialized. This is other part of the documentation that is wrong. When you create a pipe, you must add a _25B7Office suffix to the user name that is logged in into the machine. The documentation states that you must create a pipe named <user_name>_Office. We found this looking at the LocalOfficeConnection.java file. As I mentioned earlier, I hope that this would help somebody in my same desperate situation. I think that the OOoBean is a very cool piece of software created for OO, but it seems that the support for this is not very active. Who is the developer of this? How can we help to maintain it? Do you guys need some help in here? Regards Marco
