This has something to do with my try and catch block, and I am wondering what the problem is. It says for the try error that, "unreported exception java.lang.classnotfound excpetion must be caught or declared before it is thrown".</p> <p>I apologize for the obvious questions, but I am new to try and catch blocks too. I know it has something to do with me not declaring this type of error because the SQLException has been declared in the java.sql package; hence, why I don't get an error. (I include "import java.sql package" in my code since I am using the Connection class for JDBC). The class basically sets up a connection and returns that connection.</p>
