Hello Sergio,

"Condition" is a built-in task (no need to add any jars anywhere), but you are 
running a really old version of ant, so that's probably the issue here. First 
things first: upgrade ant to 1.6.5 (latest stable). There is no built-in way to 
upgrade ant, so just go to http://ant.apache.org/, and follow the instructions 
to download and install 1.6.5 on your computer . After installing, make sure 
that you are using the new version by typing:

C:\Documents and Settings\trademak>ant -version
Apache Ant version 1.6.5 compiled on June 2 2005

Regs,
/t
