I would love to do this in C# or C++ but when you work for someone you have to do it their way or the high way. I am not the greatest in Java but I have done my fair share of time with it. I wouldnt consider myself a noob, but not a pro either.
I figured out why I couldnt get it to work when I tried to create it as a jar file.
To reply to mensahero, Yes the application compiles fine in eclipse. It just didnt work when I double clicked the jar file. I recieved that error. But all is good now. Thanks for all the help and to those that responded.

To have a .jar executable file to work you need a manifest.mf file in your .jar that says which class containing public static void main(String[] arg)
File manifestEuroStyle.mf:
CODE
Main-Class: ca/pblinc/eurostyle/EuroStyle
and your jar command should specifies that manifest file
jar -cmf0 manifestEuroStyle.mf EuroStyle.jar ca org common jxl
note the "m" that specifies that the first parameter is the name of the manifest file

and you could distribute the jar file instead..
