Question

Hello,
This is the first time i am writting to a forum. I have a problem. Can any one plz help.
I am using VJ++ to read and write Excel Files. Is there a good API which can help me? After searcing, i found jxl.jar. but when i use it with VJ++, i get the following error.
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
can u plz help me?
Here is the code:
package com.netech.rf.lsr;
import java.io.File;
import jxl.write.WriteException;
import jxl.Workbook;
import jxl.write.WritableWorkbook;
import jxl.write.WritableSheet;
public class testing
     public String writeLSR(String fileName) throws WriteException, Exception
          WritableWorkbook LSRbook = Workbook.createWorkbook(new File(fileName));
          WritableSheet lsr = LSRbook.createSheet("LSR",0);
          //writting and closing the excel sheet
          LSRbook.write();
          LSRbook.close();
          String msg = "successfully written";          
     return msg;
     public static void main(String args[])
          try{                    
               testing lsrrecord = new testing();
               String msg = lsrrecord.writeLSR("LSRRECORD.XLS");
               System.out.println(msg);          
          catch(WriteException e)
               System.out.println("WriteException: " + e.getMessage());
          catch(Exception ex)
               System.out.println("Exception: " + ex.getMessage());
But when try to run, it works fine
E:\TEST_PROJECTS\ExcelTest1>java com.netech.rf.lsr.testing
successfully written
But when i create a executable and run the same program, it gives me error:
E:\TEST_PROJECTS\ExcelTest1>excelTest1.exe
