Thank you again for your post.
It seems that I have made an error in posting to this forum.
It's just that you would have thought that as the apachefriends.org site have the Tomcat download (
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#644) and points you towards this forum for help, that maybe it is where you would post for help.
That toppled with the fact that I now have a Tomcat start and stop service in my XAMPP control panel, I would have thought that, again, there might have been some correlation between Tomcat and XAMPP.
Obviously I am mistaken.
Sorry to have wasted your time.

PS. I am not trying to be sarcastic, it just does not make sense to me. Thank you for your time.
