yea, make a JAR file. those are double-clickable in windows.also, you can make a BAT file or a SHORTCUT file.3 very easy ways of making them double-clickable.

You may also want to google "exe4j" It's a program that makes executables out of java programs. I think that's what you're asking for.

http://www.ej-technologies.com/products/exe4j/overview.htmlLooks kinda cool. Most java-2-exe programs are usually way too expensive and wont work with GUIs and require other dlls/libraries...
