Help me my coursework is due in soon!

[Rob]

Before you read this, understand that I am new to this sort of thing so my knowledge of java programming etc. is very limited. I am a Music Technology degree student and my coursework is due in after Christmas, but to get it done I need to get Textpad working properly! I have installed the program on Windows XP but every time I try to compile or run a program I get an error message saying that files cannot be found (think it's within c:\Windows\system 32 or something like that!). Anyway, I have come to the conclusion that I probably need to install something extra-can anyone tell me what though?!

well, i'm assuming the reason why u can't compile your progrmas with textpad, is because you don't have a compiler installed. if you are programming in java, you need a java compiler, like jdk 1.4. so first install a compiler, then install textpad. make sure to uninstall textpad beofre u do this. so, install the the compiler, then, install textpad.

hope that helps.

Hello,

I am having the same problem! I installed newest JDK 1.4.1_01. I then installed TextPad and still when I compile a Java program I get an
Error C:Windows\sytem32\javac.exe?

Thanks
