Computer does not recognise javac???

843810Dec 6 2005 — edited Dec 10 2005
Hi
I'm from UK, although I've used one for ages I am new to computing itself and very new to programming - in fact I haven't started yet because I cannot get my JDK to work!! I have downloaded it successfully, it is installed and I have verified the version from athe command prompt. I have written a programme as detailed in my Programming with Java book, and saved it with a java file extension and I am sure it is correct. But when I try to compile mit I get "'javac' is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file"
My book has no further advice on what to do - can anyone on this site offer me any help please.

Thanks
