Hi Tim, It is nice that you have joined our little group. The answer is YES and maybe a little no.
I suspect that you cannot compile using javac because of one or more errors in your source code file, or something to do with a path statement, or something to do with your javac program setup or maybe several errors. Please carefully read the FAQ for some ideas to aid you. I also think that there is a special subject on this topic on the web. Check: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/getStarted/cupojava/win32.html http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/getStarted/problems/index.html If you can get the Java NetBeans IDE installed and working, then write and test your program in NetBeans IDE. After you have a working program, then by using only the source file (xxxx.java file) you should be able to use the javac program to compile it. If it will still not compile, then you have something setup wrong with javac, since you have proved that the source file is good with NetBeans IDE. It is really nice to be able to use both the NetBeans IDE and the javac program to compile your programs. Later on, you will want to use both of them from time to time.
