hello,
I have a quick question.
my project is moving off of JactiveX and onto a third party java2com bridge.
I would like to remove all of MS java from winXP.
Or insall a fresh version of winXP without java.
So I can perform proper testing.
Is there a way to do either?
can anyone help?

thanks in advance

Note you can save the registry key first by:
On the File menu, click Export.
In the File name box, type SaveKey, and then click Save.
Or create a system restore point prior to editing.
Note: If the registry key is not there, you can simply create one by going
edit > new.
