Presently working on O U project and need to start a java program through the command line. I've tried entering the syntax as given but no go. The file I need to run is called Welcome.java and is presently in My Documents. First of all, can anyone supply the correct syntax using javac to run a java program and Secondly, can anyone tell me what the address of My Documents is on a machine with a single user set up on it. Many thanks Roger
