Sounds like you don't have javac.exe in your PATH. You should set JAVA_HOME system environment variable to point to the directory where you have installed your JDK, and set your PATH system environment variable to include "%JAVA_HOME%/bin" or whatever the proper Windows syntax is. You could alternatively tell JDE where your javac.exe actually resides, but you probably want JAVA_HOME and PATH set correctly, anyway. mike -- Michael R.
