Thanks, but never mind. The change to using '.jav' instead of '.java' for the compiler would have to be done at Java's implementation level, i.e. as a sysadmin or sysprog. I have found no-one among the Java developers and course tutors who could tell me how to do this. So I thought this list *might* know. Thanks anyway. Cheers, Chris Poncelet (retired sysprog)
