I am able to use it now.

I think the problem was in two parts.

When using the command line, with the correct parameters, I would get this
error. I moved the files to a shorter path name on my file system and it
worked.

The other part of the problem was with my using a shortcut to try to launch
Electric with IRSIM. The target was:
java -classpath "electricBinary-8.09.jar;electricIRSIM-8.09.jar"
com.sun.electric.Launcher
but i had a parameter for "Start In." Removing the parameter allowed me to
use the shortcut to launch Electric with IRSIM, as long as the shortcut is
in the same folder as IRSIM.jar and electric.jar.

Thank You,
Bryan

Can you use the same command to start Electric without IRSIM?=A0 That
is, can you type:<br><br>
=A0=A0=A0=A0 java -classpath
&quot;electricBinary-8.09.jar&quot; com.sun.electric.Launcher<br><br>
This is testing whether your jar file is corrupted.<br><br>
If this works, then are you using the correct separator character (you
use &quot;;&quot; but some systems need &quot;:&quot;).<br><br>
Finally, can you connect multiple jar files with this technique?=A0
Try downloading the bean shell and make it the second jar file in that
command.<br><font color=3D"#888888"><br>
