    Hi, Chuck,

    Thanks for offering to help.

    I went to the "Troubleshooting Problems Building and Running" that
    you suggested. Following your Mac OS X wobuild.properties file
    settings, I discovered that the only significant difference was my:

         wo.woroot=/

    vs. your:

         wo.woroot=/System

    That sounded like a possibility, so I set mine to /System, started
    Eclipse, deleted my earlier project and created a new one. No
    change. :-(

    However, I did notice that the Windows example that you posted on the
    page looks a little munged. In particular, the line that you
    commented out dribbled onto the next line and concatenated the
    setting on that line so it looks like this:

    #wo.dir.user.home.library=C:/Documents and Settings/Chuck Hill/Local/
    Library wo.dir.user.home.library=C:/Temp wo.dir.library=U:/Apple/Library

    (Note the "wo.dir.library=" starting at the end of the second line.)

    I checked my environment variables as per the lower pane and didn't
    see anything that might cause trouble on Mac OS X except my:

         JAVA_HOME=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/
    1.5.0/Home

    Eclipse is not expecting Java 1.4, is it?

    Regards,
    Jerry
