and you can download it from here: http://apache.securedservers.com/xmlbeans/binaries/xmlbeans-2.5.0.zip

if (most ppbly) you're using an IDE (eclipse etc) add it in the build path...

if invoking from the CLI use the -cp switch as you might be doing for everything else...

Your classpath is missing one of the dependencies for Apache POI. Specifically, you are missing the XMLBeans jar. Are you using Maven?
