I downloaded javax.comm. There is a 7-step instruction as to how to install. In step 5 it says "if you already have a classpath defined:
c:\.set CLASSPATH=c:\jdk1.1.6\lib\comm.jar;%classpath%
I did this and the program works; but when I shutdown and then start again i have to do this again everytime as otherwise the program does not work. Any way to get around this?
Thanks
Ken
