I am using jre1.1.8 (it's my java runtime env. for Moneydance). StarOffice5.2 wouldn't recognize the jre executible. you need the jdk for development, the jre should work for running java applets from the browser. You might need to tweak the javarc file that SO uses for any particular version to work. -- Alex (Go easy on me, I'm a COBOL programmer in real life)

If you have the Deluxe version, you could install the Sun JDK from the commercial applications disk. I think that is one of the apps that is included in the Deluxe version, but not the Complete version. If you don't have it you can download a version that will work from www.blackdown.org.
