Hi John:
  You may not have the CLASSPATH set properly for running the samples. 

 You need to have all the jar files ( xercesImpl.jar, xml-apis.jar, 
xmlParserAPIs.jar )  including xercesSamples.jar in your CLASSPATH.

 If you are running on windows you can set CLASSPATH
by doing 

set 
CLASPATH=<Xerces_JAR_HOME>\xercesImpl.jar;<Xerces_JAR_HOME>\xml-apis.jar;<Xerces_JAR_HOME>\xmlParserAPIs.jar;<Xerces_JAR_HOME>\xercesSample.jar;%CLASSPATH%

 Here Xerces_JAR_HOME is the location of Xerces jar files on your system
on the command tool. You can also set the CLASSPATH as System Variables using 
Start->Settings=ControlPanel->System  and then selecting Environment Variables 
button

  On UNIX systems and using either KSH you can do 

export 
CLASSPATH=<Xerces_JAR_HOME>/xercesImpl.jar:<Xerces_JAR_HOME>/xml-apis.jar:<Xerces_JAR_HOME>/xmlParserAPIs.jar:<Xerces_JAR_HOME>/xercesSample.jar:$CLASSPATH

You can check your current CLASSPATH by doing

 echo %CLASSPATH% ( Windows )
 echo $CLASSPATH ( UNIX )

 Please let me know if you need any additional help regarding this.

 

Thanks
-Ramesh
