Hi there, In Windows XP: Right click 'My Computer'. Click 'Properties' Go to the 'Advanced' tab Click 'Environment Variables' Scroll down the list of 'System Variables' until you see the 'Variable' called 'Path' Select 'Path' and click 'Edit' In the 'Variable value' text box, go to the end of the value that is in there and add the following: ';C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_11\bin\' (without the quotes) Pleas note that you may need to change the folder based on what version JDK you have installed. 8. When you have done this click 'Ok' on all the windows until you have closed all the windows. 9. If you have the command prompt open, close it, then re-open it and you should be able to use 'javac' Hope this helps, Bernie.

To check the variable please open the command prompt and type in javac it should show you the commands.

'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I have been able to compile programs in NetBeans IDE. The file was created in notepad and saved with the .java extension. Alex _________________________________________________________________ Need a new place to rent, share or buy?
