Thank you guys for the rapid responses! Wow! For the record.... yes, I knew it was command line, yes I had set my variables (both in 1.0.2 and in 2).
Patrick.. you threw me buddy... Ive messed with computers (yes, command line too) since DOS (pre windows). Until today, I never knew I could drag/drop into it though! Wow! Ok, onto the important stuff. Once I did that, it says the JAVA_HOME is set wrong. But, it IS where Java is installed. Do I point it to the jdk1.5.0_02 folder or the jdk1.5.0_02\bin? I have it set to jdk1.5.0_02 folder only. Will be trying jdk1.5.0_02\bin while waiting for responses. Thank you all!
