You're right. The reply was sent while I was in the middle of it.
(Sorry).
Here's what I meant to say. ... the comments could be made clearer,
maybe:
// set up new properties object
FileInputStream propFile = new FileInputStream(
"myProperties.txt");
Properties p = new Properties(System.getProperties());
// Add properties from file "myProperties.txt"
FileInputStream propFile = new FileInputStream(
"myProperties.txt");
p.load(propFile);

I did play with it and didn't see any huge difference when I commented
out all the propFile code, thus the question. And I do read all the
recommended material, it just doesn't get through sometimes so I need
more direction. Truly, I'm not lazy, just a bit dense sometimes. :)
