[code] Class currClass; Modules currModule; try { currClass = Class.forName("ClassNameFromFile"); currModule = (Modules)currClass.newInstance(); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { System.out.println("Could not find module"); e.printStackTrace(); } catch (InstantiationException e) { System.out.println("Could not create a module instance"); e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IllegalAccessException e) { System.out.println("Could not access named module"); e.printStackTrace(); } [/code] Of course, for this to work, you have to import java.lang.relfect.*; but, eh, that's just a line of code, not hard to do. Thanks for all your help.
