As far as I know, you cannot just make .java files into .exe. This is because of the way Java works.

.java files are compiled into Java byte code, which is the .class file you generate. By running java MyClass, you are interpreting the byte code through the java interpreter. This is the reason java is platform independant - the interpreter does the 'work'. By generating .class files, the programs are in a standard format - java byte code.

I believe that it's possible in Visual J++ (not java), but other than that I'm not too sure. I seem to remember a thread on this forum asking this and someone gave a 'maybe' answer.

Sorry
