I initially left it like that but when it wasn't working thought I had 
to flip the / but it still didn't work.  Then put the jar in the root of 
my app and tried running it but still nothing.  But I can still go to 
the command line and run it with no problems.

If I only didn't need to run this in Windows... :)

I'm also trying "java -jar charting/RequestByProject.jar" but exec() 
doesn't seem to like the spaces, any idea how I could execute it that 
way?

Thanks
