Not on my system it doesn't in a dos box!!! That's exactly what I typed
in. It gives the error I mentioned earlier. Must be some setup option or
paths option which affects this.
The view in Control Panel varies between Windows versions, obviously.
That may be because your java is old (or non-existent!).
I got the same issue under my Windows Server 2008 standard (based on
Windows 7). I installed Java via http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
and it then gave:
c:\Users\Administrator>java -version
java version "1.7.7_11"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_11-b21)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.6-b04, mixed mode)

Dilwyn, Brian,
open a command session (aka dosbox)
type the command "java -version" without any quotes and press return.
You will get a response that says something like:
Java version "1.x.y.z-bnn"
X = the Java version 6, 7, whatever.
Y = minor release of X
Z = update number.
bnn = build number.
Using Control panel, in XP, I didn't have Programs, but I did have Java.
Double-clicking it opened a dialogue.
On the Genearl tab is an about button. I clicked it.
It said "Java 6 Standard Edition" in the heading, and beneath that it
said "version 6, update 29 (build 1.6.0_29-b11)"
That corresponds to my 1.x.y.z which is 1.6.0_29-b11.
HTH
Cheers,
Norm.
