Jim,
I can't help sort out the Java problem, it is definitely over my head. I can
only confirm that I am running the program successfully on two different
PC's, both running Windows XP Home edition. I did find the Sun sight
somewhat confusing and at first wondered if I had gotten the correct Java
environment, perhaps that is the confusion.
Hope you can sort it out, it is a neat little package when you get it
working.

Subject: Can't run Olivier's Java programs
Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2004 09:01:05 -0400

I thought I understood computers, but...

I downloaded the correct Sun JRE version and installed it using the Windows
Installer kernel.  The installation failed once, and then ran fine second
time.  Window's logs confirm the successful installation.

I unzipped Olivier's package into a custom D: drive directory and ran
celest.bat.  The DOS window appears.  When I type J/Enter, I get this error
message: "'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file".

Windows XP Home
Fast machine, lots of RAM

I tried googling around about installing the Java environment, and I tried
searching through windows on my machine to see if the Java environment is
mentioned anywhere, but came up dry.

Internet Explorer's java security settings are on "high", but I can't see
that affecting a java program running on my machine.

Thoughts, anyone?  Thanks.
