hi, i assume you're using VisualAge for Java 3.5. the class EJBHome in the project 'IBM Enterprise Extension Libraries' does not have the method getHomeHandle(). you can fix this problem by importing ejb.jar of in the jboss lib-directory, but it will break the Websphere Test Environment (WTE) of the enterprise edition. i simply ignored the exception. jakob _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] List Help?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
