Hi
Besides what John suggested check to be sure you have a JDK (developers
kit) and not just the JRE (runtime environment) on your machine. The
JRE does not contain the java compiler (javac.exe). You can do a
search/find to locate javac if you are not sure if/where it is. If not
found you need to install a JDK
I don't know JCreator but other IDEs I am familiar with have special
ways of setting up CLASSPATH for each Project/Environment. Check that
the Derby jar files are known / included in the JCreator workspace. I
would bet that JCreator has javac somewhere in it's installation.

Couple of novice questions here (your help is much
appreciated!):
1) While going through the "Working with JavaDB" pdf
in Step 2 of Activity 3 (ie, page 14), I'm getting a
command line error of "'javac' is not recognized as an
internal or external command...". I presume there is
a problem with my JAVA_HOME path, but I've changed it
from the "java/j2re1.4.2_03" directory (which has
worked for everything else) to "java/jdk1.6.0" (where
the 'javac.exe' file exists) and still nothing. Is
there somewhere else where the 'javac' command should
be picked up?
2) Separately, I compiled the WwdEmbedded.java file in
an IDE (JCreator) and when I trying executing it I get
"ClassNotFoundException:
org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver". I understand
this may be a CLASSPATH problem, however when I check
%classpath% it shows it pointing to the 'derby.jar'
and 'derbytools.jar' files. Any other common problems
or suggestions?
Thanks for your help!
