Thanks a million I got it to work now. It looks like our designated users
will have to add that line to their file on their machines.

Sounds like you're having a security problem. Try adding this line:
permission java.io.FilePermission "<<ALL FILES>>", "write";
to: c:\program files\javasoft\JRE\1.3\lib\security\java.policy
Make sure it's verbatim.
(Or you can just use PolicyTool to add it.) You can also replace "<<ALL
FILES>>" with "c:\\temp\\test.out".
If this works, you have 2 choices:
1) Add this line to java.policy on every PC you want to run this JApplet
2) Purchase a code signing certificate from Verisign or Thawte and use it
to sign your code.

Subject: JApplet writing to local file
Hello,
Okay here's my problem. I want to make a japplet write locally (i.e. on the
client's computer) but I'm unable to because the following happens:
1. My JApplet is on my workstation. It's supposed to write to
c:\temp\test.out (locally - i.e. my machine right now)
2. When I run my html file in appletviewer (from the command line) it works.
3. But when I simply open my html file in IE 5.5 it gives me the security
violation window.
Is there something extra I need to do because I've generated keys,
jarsigned, converted html, and ran the policytool?
Sincerely,
