I'm sorry, but I'm still confused.  I have JBuilder professional 2.01 and
I want to write code compatible with JDK1.2.  What do I need to do?

I tried defining a new target JDK version and pointing it to JDK1.2, but
the applets I create come up blank, and are difficult to kill.

Clarification would be much appreciated!
