Ok, Richard.

I understand your explaining away the problem on most of Sun's
responsibility, but for Inprise to advertise, as you guys did, was wrong.
I've got deadlines that I've got to meet that I have strained as a result of
attempting to determine what the hell I was doing wrong with JBuilder 2.01
and JDK1.2, since it was advertised as such! I have called two "support"
engineers only to get voice mail, with no response in two days, and even no
response from your sales contact we bought the 4 packages thru!!! This is a
crime, and we are seriously considering changing over to Symantec's
offering, if nothing else, for better support!!!

It would help extremely if someone at Inprise would simply sit down and
write up, if it is actually possible, the steps to make JDK1.2, it's version
of swing, and JBuilder 2.01 work together, in harmony, such that we can
compile successfully, include all the class files we need to deploy
successfully, and to visually "Design" successfully. This is not too much to
ask!
