I suspect that what you have made is a Java applet. Applets must run in the context of an application, most generally a browser. Put your file1.class file in a directory to which you have access with a web server and write a simple web page, say file1.html, with the following in it, in addition to the usual required HTML markup. <applet code="file1.class" width=400 height=300> </applet> You can make the width and height whatever you want them to be. If your applet needs parameters, you'll need to put them inbetween these tags as something like... <param name="whatever1" value="xxx"> <param name="whatever2" value="yyy"> These aren't real names and values, but I'm sure you get the idea. Access the page you've created with a java-enabled browser (most are these days) and you should see your applet run. There are a number of good books on Java. I recommend "Java in a Nutshell", published by O'Reilly & Associates. Java is pretty complex. You'll need additional documentation to understand how to use it properly.
