Max, Thank you. I understand that I should put the line: hibernate.default_schema myclass. My question is: 1. what is myclass? Is it some schema file generated by the database manager? Is it a java class called "myclass" in a "myclass.java" file? Please be patient with me if I sound "rediculous" as I am a newbie in this. thanks a bunch, BunZ View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3994743#...
