Hi Laura,When you set an environment variable using CLI, you want to omit the '%' character. You'll want to try: set derby_home=c:\derby_10\db-derby-10.2.2.0-bin\derbydbs instead of set %derby_home%=c:\derby_10\db-derby-10.2.2.0-bin\derbydbs Raymond On 5/10/07, Laura Stewart < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi - When I try to perform activity 2, I run into problems.
