| You need to download and install the SDK (Standard Development Kit) then to be able to actually use the compiler efficently you need to add the bin folder in the java SDK directory to your Path Enviromental Variable (i.e. C:\j2sdk1.4.9\bin) that will let you just type in javac and the file name in a command prompt to compile your app. i had to do the same thing recently in Windows XP.... so if you need anymore help you can get my contact info from my profile |
