javac command not found

807598Jan 21 2006 — edited Jan 23 2006
I am new to Java programming and I wrote my first program to say "Hello World!" ...what a surprise... anyway, when I try to compile it, my command promt does not recognize the 'javac' command. I bought a book on Java that came with the J2SE Development Kit AND SDK, and they are installed to the folder it asked for, however my computer still will not recognize it... Any thoughts???

P.S. Thanks ahead of time for any solutions... My goal is to develop a 'graphic equalizer' my March 17, 2006 - the opening of my school's musical AIDA! It seems like a far goal for a beginner, but I'm a fast learner and hope to develop one for use by our sound tech...
