How to run windows xp files on leopard,

New mac user. I cannot open backup files taken by western digital backup on my old windows system.
I guess the question is how or what program do I need to open these files?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
The suffix on the file name should give you a clue:
.DOC = Microsoft Word varients
.EXE = Install some Windows Virtualization program or find an equivalent Mac title.
.XLS = Microsoft Excel varients
.ZIP = Should open automatically.
.WKS = Lotus 1-2-3 varients.
Others, just ask, and someone here typically will know. See my FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/macosxnative.html#WINTEL
for more hints.

    Hi,
    My aim is to run a MS-DOS Batch file, that I created to run a Java Prgram.
    I need to call the Batch File from the Oracle Procedure, Also I may need to change the content of the Batch File (Argument to the Java JAR File ).
    I can keep the JAR FIle either in the Oracle Server or in the Application Server.
    The Java program is to convert XML Format FIle to PDF and MS Word format.
    Oracle Version : 10g 2.0.1.0.
    Thanks in advance

  • How to run a JAR file in Unix system?

    hi there
    ca anyone tell me how to run a JAR file in unix system or X window, thank you

    You want to create an executable JAR file? You do it in the following way.
    Create a manifest file such as manif.txt and the contents should contain
    Main-Class: foo
    assuming foo is the name of your main class. Then create the jar as follows
    jar cvfm foo.jar manif.txt foo.class
    I hope that helps you!
    you can find more info here http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jar/

    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • How to run a jar file

    hi
    can anybody tell me how to run a jar file in java,is there any need to unzip a jar file before running it?
    Thanks in advance.

    Set the classptha, if you want to run it by double clicking.
    I assume that you know, how to set the classpath.I though that if it is an executable jar, the classpath environment variable will be completely ignored. Are you saying something to the contrary?

  • How to run a batch file clicking a button?

    Hi All,
    Can you tell me anyone how to run a batch file clicking a button? And also the progress bar showing the progress.
    Arif

    As said: write the insert statement like above (of course replace the databaselink, column and table names with your own) in a stored procedure and call this procedure in the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED Trigger.
    As for the progress bar: how many records are you processing and how is the network connection between your database server? As above method is rather fast it might take just a few seconds and you could spare you the progress bar (this might be a little tricky to implement).
    cheers
