Dear Geertjan, That's right. The main app is KillerSudoku. There's a separate class (which is used by another project as well) called Partitions5. That hasn't changed for years. You're probably right. It'll take me a bit of time to sort that out as I have to go offline now for a few hours - maybe even tomorrow. I'll report back.

Not sure what this means, but something seems strange, aside from there being two Java source files in total. Maybe you need to check javac.source and javac.target in the project.properties of both of your projects.

I had opened the project (well, a copy of it so as not to disturb the original which works in NB version 8) in NB 11 and gone through the error resolution. Changing the source/target to JDK8 doesn't change anything - see attached screenshot.

Stackoverflow gives remedies for this, but only for Maven. This project was built using Ant in NB 8 which I assume is carried over to NB 11. The only likely reference that I can see is in build-impl.xml which is firmly marked "DO NOT EDIT"! But the comment implies that the properties aren't being overridden correctly. <target depends="-pre-init,-init-private" name="-init-user"> ?? <property file="${user.properties.file}"/> ?? <!-- The two properties below are usually overridden --> ?? <!-- by the active platform. Just a fallback. --> ?? <property name="default.javac.source" value="1.6"/> ?? <property name="default.javac.target" value="1.6"/> ?? </target>?? Any ideas where to go from here please?
