Hi Srini

I tried Eclipse but it does not appear to allow me to select the Deploy option as described here (See below)

Once you have created your application components and unit tested them in your own development organization, you may want to migrate them to a different organization for such purposes as testing, staging, publication, or production use by end users. For example, you will often find yourself coding and synchronizing with a Development Environment organization. If you’re happy with those changes, you will want to deploy the changes to a sandbox for testing against a copy of your production data. The Force.com IDE facilitates this deployment, and it is highly configurable. To deploy a project, or a subset of a project, to an organization, right click on the component or folder and select Force.com > Deploy to Server. You will then be prompted for connection details to the destination organization. Once you have entered these, you can select the metadata components to upload. For example, you may select just a trigger and the test class that accompanies it. Once you’ve determined what to deploy, you can either validate the deployment—fully executing the deploy process on the server, including running tests, without actually committing the changes—or execute the deployment so your changes are saved. If the deployment fails for any reason, you will be presented with a list of each error or test failure so you know what to fix.
