You do have to set your classpath. Here is how my classpath is set: classpath = c:\sax2\sax2.jar;c:\xerces-1_1_2\xerces.jar
What I usually do is put product specific classpaths like this into a separate little batch file, c.bat, and run them when I open a CMD window. That way I don't have huge (and unreadable) classpath statement. I'm using both command line tools and JBuilder Foundation. To set the classpath in JBuilder, from the menu choose Project/Project Properties then pick Paths at the top level tab and Required Libraries on the inner tab. Press the button to Add a library, browsing to find the jar files. Again, I find it best to associate this sort of classpath library with a particular project. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] rg]On Behalf Of JJD Sent: Friday, July 07, 2000 9:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Install path Hi: I am new to this technology and have not been a DOS or Windows Admin.. As a result when it comes to setting up environment PATH I am not easy. My question: Setup; Windows NT4.0 xerces 1.1.2 jdk1.2.1 I have downloaded and installed Xerces in my E: drive, top level. I need to set my PATH as follows: E:\xerces-1_1_2\xerces.jar Does the same, also, have to be included in the CLASSPATH? I know that it needs to be set at the System Property Window. I am reading the book "Java and XML" by Bret McLaughlin. Although the instructions seem clear enough I just want to confirm. Thank you in advance for a response. JJD
