HELLO,
I have gone to control panel and to system and to
enviroment variables and added this:
original path was C:WINNTsystem32;C:WINNT;C:WINNTSystem32Wbem
ON MY SYSTEM:
after I added path became:
C:WINNTsystem32;CWINNT;C:WINNTSystem32Wbem;C:jdk1.4in
Classpath became:
C:WINNTsystem32;CWINNT;C:WINNTSystem32Wbem;C:jdk1.4lib
I closed control panel and went to DOS.Since I downloaded the java
compiler to drive E: inside the program files folder and a folder I
named java2,I went to Drive E: cd program files>cd java2>javac
HelloWorld.java.
I am still getting the same error messages "cannot locate javac"
and "The name specified is not recognised as an internal or external
command,operable program or batch file."

STRESSED OUT!!!!!PLEASE HELP!!!!!

:

have u installed java in ur E: or in the C: ?
for the PATH and CLASSPATH that u have set, java should be installed in the C:jdk1.4 directory...
also set a CLASSPATH to the rt.jar file. This is the run-time jar file.

basically like this...

[code]
SET PATH=C:jdk1.4in
SET CLASSPATH=C:jdk1.4in;C:jdk1.4jrelib
t.jar
[/code]

it doesnt matter where u have downloaded the java compiler, u should set the PATH and CLASSPATH using the folder where u "installed" java...

cheers...
hope this helps
