So first, these variables are case-insensitive so PATH or Path doesn't make a difference here.
Next, it doesn't matter which you choose to modifiy unless you have multiple user accounts. If you have a single user account, simply modify the user account one and leave the system one alone. Third, you don't want to replace what's already there, just add to it -- that way it won't break existing stuff. The path syntax is "path1;path2;path3..". The semi-colon is the separator, so just add a ; and then the jre/bin path at the end. HTH R/ On Tue, Apr 14, 2009 at 11:46 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > I really appreciate this help.
