[thelist] Applet class file

[CDitty]

You can't edit a .class file.  Class files are compiled java files.  Once 
it is compiled, it is turned into computer language.  Your best bet is to 
get the java source from your customer and edit that.

Another choice that you have, although must more complicated, would be to 
find a program called jad.  (Do a google search for this.)  This will 
decompile the .class file, but it might not give you the expected results 
you wish.

Hope this helps.  If I am wrong on any of this, someone please correct me.
