To all of you java experts, i have a huge headache with the classpath,
i am running a pentium 3 machine with windows 2000 service pack 4, jdk
1.6, the jdk is on the filesystem as the following filepath,
C:\program files\java\jdk1.6.0 , i am also running netbeans and it
works ok, i am trying to compile a file on the following path,
c:\java\helloworld.java, i have also updated the system environment
variable to reflect the path, i am not sure if i have done this
correctly so some explicit wording would be helpful but this is what i
ahve currently on the system environment variable Path c:\program
files\java\jdk1.6.0\bin. Why why why do i still get the same message
that the system javac is not recognised as a internal or external
command, operable program or batch file, please please please i am not
interested in hearing any stupid remarks just plain english, what the
hell do i need to do to get this effing thing to work on the command
line

Two possibilities:

1) Your java is not where you think it is.
2) Your path is not what you think it is.

Thank you grasshopper i am now truly enlightened

Well did you get it to work?

If not, print out your path and the directory of the JDK and post them.
