    If you wish to seperate AFC to work with "OTHER" VM's.. such
    as Sun's, or Borland's, you need 3 sections from Microsoft's
    CLASSES.ZIP that comes with SDK 2.0 release.

        com.ms.ui
        com.ms.fx
        com.ms.util.cab

    You can package these up with JAR.EXE that ships with JBuilder, or Sun's
JDK 1.1.x. Use this
    command while in the directory that contains the 'com' directory
    (i.e. C:\TEMP if that's where you unzipped everything..)

        JAR CVF AFC.JAR COM

    This will create an archive AFC.JAR.. with COM as the directory to
    process.. and which will automatically be parsed (every subdirectory
under
    it).

    Then, simply use the JAR in your CLASSPATH

            set
CLASSPATH=C:\JDK1.1.4\LIB\AFC.JAR;C:\JDK1.1.4\LIB\CLASSES.ZIP

    Your errors may have come from using ms/awt classes. Microsoft has
    butchered Java code at will.
