Hi,I tested and it works well, thx.but when i change file extension from jar to exe, it doesn't work again.do you have idea to create an exe file which can be self-executed?(all class files are in the exe file also)cheers

if it is an exe file, customers may be happier because they are used to use exe file instead of jar file.maybe i can add icon to the exe file so it looks nicer.cheers

you can add an icon to a jar file? jar files work exactly the same as an exe... so what is there to get used to? and jar files are BETTER than exe's..... so again... why do you wanna do this?

jar files can have any icon that you specify.... and again it is cross platform
