anand.kannan{@}orange.co.in Unregistered	Posted Wednesday, December 31, 1969 @ 23:59:59 Hi Ben, I downloaded the flat-file DB driver from the URL you suggested. It was basically a class file that I had to run from command prompt and then I was guided through the installation. I stored all the files that were extracted in C:\security1\com\orange\clientsidedetails\SimpletextSrc folder. (My driver lies in one of the sub-folders of this). Now, I have in my classpath, as per your suggestions..... 1. your quicktable2swing11.jar file( which is C:\security1\com\orange\clientsidedetails\quicktable2swing11\lib\quicktable2swing11.jar) 2. swingall.jar ( a kind-of dummy file in the lib directory of jdk1.3) 3. (the third is the .jar file from the DBDriver vendor. In my case, it is the SimpleTxt website.) Instead, I have included C:\security1\com\orange\clientsidedetails\SimpletextSrc folder in the classpath. (I hope it is not the class file that I downloaded that needs to be in the classpath). Also, what is the name of the driver for the flatFile?

The samples included in the samples directory uses this simpletextdriver, so you can have a look at it about how to use this driver, the name format of datafiles, datafile struture etc. driver name = jdbc.SimpleText.SimpleTextDriver jdbc url format = jdbc:SimpleText:(directory ,where the data files are located) example: if database flat files are located in c:\temp, jdbc:SimpleText:c:\temp The data files should have an extension .SDF For sample data files look at the samples/database directory in the quicktable zip file Example: dBTable1.connectDatabase("jdbc.SimpleText.SimpleTextDriver", "jdbc:SimpleText:c:\\temp", "" ,""); Ben
