After lots of trial errors i found some very weired workaround. javac -classpath <big list of all jar files inside struts> <javafilename> and finally got compiled, but for each file i must do something like above. I do not know how to set -classpath to javac permanently. Also why i need to give the individual jar file names? Why i can not just give directory name - which contains all jar files ? I am sure there will some better way of doing it, regards Manisha

I do not have admin access so i can not change the path or class path permanenetly as such i.e. going thr Control panel->Environment variables. I am not using any IDE tool. What i did -> Copied all jar files from struts into my /common/lib. I opened Command prompt. Set the path variable to /common/lib like C:>PATH=%PATH%;/common/lib then in the same window i tried to compile javac EmployeeForm.java But still it is same, not understanding ActionForm. Pls guide me. regards Manisha "David G. Friedman" wrote: Manisha, How are you compiling? Are you using Ant? Have you added the "lib" directory to the CLASSPATH? Are you using Eclipse or another IDE? Have you set the IDE to include the jar files when it builds/compiles the application?
