    set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0
    set CLASSPATH=.;%JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\rt.jar;%CLASSPATH%
    set PATH=%PATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\bin

    I haven't done much in Java for the last six months or so, (so I could be out of tune!), but I recommend you get your hands on Eclipse, or NetBeans, or JBuilder. They are all free downloads, and provide a decent IDE environment for compiling, debugging and (most importantly for slackers like me:)) code look-ahead. The installation routines should put the JDK in a folder it can see, so that it compiles.

    Good luck :)
