Hi, sorry about this but I'm incredibly new to this format of application (java). I've followed the instructions but I'm not sure I've done it correctly. The file was unzipped to my D drive and I placed (or think I have) a route to saxon9.jar in my CLASSPATH as shown: .;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_06\lib\ext\QTJava.zip;D:\Saxon\saxon9.jar; When I try to run a transform from within the directory I placed it I get the following: D:\Saxon>java net.sf.saxon.Transform -s:snadbox_stripped.xml -xsl:TransformPPT.xslt -o:out.xml Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/sf/saxon/Transform Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: net.sf.saxon.Transform at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(Unknown Source) D:\Saxon> any ideas would seriously be appreciated thanks.

There could be a problem with that space in one of the files on your classpath, I'm not sure. It's also possible that the CLASSPATH variable isn't being picked up. How did you set it up? Try the command echo %CLASSPATH% to make sure. Personally (partly because I'm always changing the classpath) I find it easier to enter the classpath as part of the command line itself: java -cp .;d:\saxon\saxon9.jar net.sf.saxon.Transform .... It makes for a long command line but you can always put it in a batch file. I'm puzzled by the QTJava.zip. It's not usual to have a .zip file on the classpath.

Thanks I decided to work directly in the installation folder. I'm confused about the zip as well, took me by surprise when I first looked at CLASSPATH. I appreciate the help though, many thanks.

Zip files are OK, as long as they have the right contents. A jar file is zip compressed. From the manual: -cp classpath Specify a list of directories, JAR archives, and ZIP archives to search for class files.
