Thanks for resolving this.
Mike when you have time could you also look into another problem.
This has to do with NetRexx under linux.
Under linux I keep getting this message
"java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:sun/tools/javac/Main"
even though I have the classpath pointing correctly to tools.jar.
The only way to avoid this is to copy tools.jar to jre/lib/ext directory.
I am using sun's jdk 1.2, NetRexx 2, Redhat linux 6.0
Thanks
Satguru
