I got rid off the compilation errors, although I have errors while deploying,
but I'll try to read about EJB 3.0 and solve these issues myself. I'll get
back to the forum, if I can not solve the problems.

I installed Netbeans on my computer, because I heard that it's the best for
Java EE development, but it runs so darn slowly that it's painful to use.
I'll give Eclipse a try also, maybe that'll be faster.

Thanks to all for their help.
