[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]So my classes are all disorganized. I make a class path in my AS Preferences.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]_C:\Custom\_AS2\_Classes_[/FONT][/COLOR]

[FONT=Arial]My script for a test of this class path is an [/FONT][FONT=Arial]FLA[/FONT][FONT=Arial]:[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]_import com.tests.trees.Junpier;_[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]_var myJuniper:Juniper = new Juniper();_[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]com being a subfolder of [COLOR=black]Custom\_AS2\_Classes and so on down to the Juniper class, which just traces something when constructed.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]All I get is this error:[/FONT][/COLOR]  
_“The class being compiled, ‘Juniper’, does not match the class that was imported, ‘Juniper’.”_

Thanks in advance.
