Sounds good.

This says Java thinks Catalog is jar - you're likely using ${catmanpath}
as part of something taht ends up on a classpath like thingy.  The
message might look anoying but doesn't do any harm in itself.

It likely is a remnant of your many attempts to get it working so far.
I must admit I feel sorry for the time you've already spent on this and
wish there was an easier way.  Me I haven't used xmlcatalog so far and
am just approaching it with some general knowledge how Ant works
internally.  Many thanks for your patience.

I see.

I don't think so.  I'd try to put the properties file into the classpath
as well, i.e. add a -lib pointing to the directory holding the
properties file.  I'm not sure this will help.

I'm just guessing here.  C:\Projects\Tools_RK\DocBook-System\WebHelp
seems to be your project's basedir and this is the default location to
resolve relative paths against.

xmlcatalog is supposed to resolve public ids, I must admit I don't know
what the transformer passes in a publicId to the URIResolver if the
import is a relative path.

Hmm, this
<http://xerces.apache.org/xml-commons/components/resolver/resolver-article.html>
suggests the URIResolver (which is used for xsl:import) applies to 
         <uri name="uri" uri="alternateuri"/>
entries only.  Is this what you have inside of your catalog?
