Peter, Rauf's already got you in good hands. Just a footnote, which you may already know: Put the classes zip file ---not the directory that contains it-- in your CLASSPATH. So your CLASSPATH might be something like: CLASSPATH=.;D:\oracle\ora81\jdbc\lib\classes12.zip i.e., treat the classes bundle file as if it were a directory itself when you set your CLASSPATH.
