hi friend,
u need to set the CLASSPATH variable.

on NT u can go to control panel>system and set this variable there.

on 98/95 u can set the same variable in the autoexec.bat file.

this variable will poinr to the tools.jar which is in your lib directory of the jdk. so give the complete path like this

CLASSPATH=/lib/tools.jar.

further u can put any classes i.e. jar/zip files u wish to use in the classpath by putting there value to the classpath variable.

hope it helps
