Hi Renuka. What version of Eclipse are you using? Is your SWT 
application an Eclipse plug-in or a stand-alone SWT application? If it's 
stand-alone, it's just like any other Java applcation and you just 
invoke it using Run as / Java Application (assuming we're talking 
Eclipse 3.3). Hope this helps. Mark
