Saxon

It's quite hard for me to help with this problem because (despite what you're saying) you're not running Saxon; the Java VM can't find Saxon and that's a Java problem not a Saxon problem. There are a number of common causes, for example using "-jar" rather than "-cp" on the command line, misspelling the file name of the JAR file, getting the current directory wrong, and so on. Without knowing exactly what you typed and exactly what files are in which directories on your machine, it's impossible to say what you did wrong.

Hi, Thanks for the help. My saxon9 folder is C:\saxon9j which holds all the .jar files I set my CLASSPATH to ".;C:\saxon9j\saxon9.jar;" command line from my current directory c:\saxon9j: java net.sf.saxon.Transform -s:C:\temp\myXML.xml -xsl:C:\temp\xslt\myxslt.xsl -o:c:/temp/output.html Thanks for the help. pvallone

Does it work if you use the same classpath explicitly, viz java -cp .;C:\saxon9j\saxon9.jar net.sf.saxon.Transform -s:C:\temp\myXML.xml -xsl:C:\temp\xslt\myxslt.xsl -o:c:/temp/output.html If it does, then there's a problem with the setting of the environment variable.

I tend to work on the assumption that changes to environment variables on Windows don't take effect until you reboot. This is almost certainly over-pessimistic, but I don't know what the actual rules are, and it errs on the safe side.

Once again, you are correct. Thanks again Sill Not liking windows....
