I am looking for some advice.  Which is better, Micro$oft's Visual J++ or
Borland's JBuilder?  and what makes it more better?

JBuilder 2.0 without the slightest doubt.

For one thing it has a far better IDE and visual modeler, for
another it supports both JDK 1.1 and the 1.2 beta (while J++ 1.1
does not even truly support 1.1).

But most of all because JBuilder generates Java code whereas J++
(any version) tries to lock you into MSes non-compatible version
of Java.

If you want to generate Java code, J++ is not the right tool, it's
a non-Java compatible Java IDE !
