Thanks for the info I decided to specify each of the JARS as turned out only needed 3 in any case. Now when I run the app I get an error as a XML file cannot be found.
I did the following in the ant target: <zipfileset file="src/java/x-jdbc.xml" prefix="" /> and this file exists in my JAR but when running the JAR the file cannot be found?
