jar executeable

[Juan Matos]

Hello all
Could someone explain to me how to make my simple java app executeable from from my desktop. I want to click on the program's icon; which will run the program. A link or a detailed explanation would be appreciated

Welcome to JavaRanch, Juan!
Take a look at the Creating an Executable JAR File thread.

is this on apple, linux or windows desktop?

Hello Robert; I would be testing on my Windows 98 machine; but would want it to work on the operating systems you mentioned as well.

Dirk, thanks for the link. Looks like I shouldn't have a problem. I'll try to use the advise tonight. I'll keep you posted on my progress. I love puns.
