Pls help - cant connect to my database while my class is part of a package

Question

Can anyone please tell me why one can't connect to a database, while the class is part of a package?
package Application;
import java.sql.*;
public class GameDatabase
GameDatabase ()
connect ();
public void connect ()
try
String url = "jdbc:odbc:DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=Profiles.mdb";
Class.forName ("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
Connection dbcon = DriverManager.getConnection (url);
catch (ClassNotFoundException a)
System.out.println ("ClassNotFoundEx");
catch (SQLException e)
System.out.println ("SQLEx");
public static void main (String [] args)
new GameDatabase ();
gives a SQLexception while the "package Appplication;" is present,
yet works perfectly when its commented.
Any suggestions how to bypass this?

Answer 1

Well, it just cannot find the file? Maybe you've to supply a path?
Further on, one more lesson:
System.out.println ("ClassNotFoundEx");
System.out.println ("SQLEx");Please don't ignore exceptions. They are not intented for phun. Rather use e.printStackTrace();
