So I am asking those of you who are on this list if you wouldn't mind giving me a couple of hands. env: Windows 2000Pro I have modified my CLASSPATH user variable to point to the correct location for CATALINA_HOME/lib. There I had put a JAR of DbConnectionBroker. Upon trying to compile a servlet in my webapps directory I was kindly told that the package could not be found? After putting the same jar in the jdk1.3.1\jre\lib\ext directory it is now *found*. Am I just totally missing how to set CLASSPATHs in Windows? This works just fine in all kinds of flavors of *nix. ***** At Command Prompt type 'set CLASSPATH' and see what you got. ***** If it is not right, go to control panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment Variables Another question if you have the patience. Is there a way to resize (horz.) the miniscule Command Prompt window? ***** Right click Command Prompt icon on desktop or menu item on start menu, ***** go to font tab and then size Alternatively, is there a way to change the prompt of the Command Prompt to not include the path info at each prompt? ***** Right click Command Prompt icon on desktop or menu item on start menu, ***** go to Shortcut tab and change Start in to whatever you want All my attempts to resize horz. despite having a cursor which indicates possibilities are futile. I realize now why a 3rd party IDE is necessary; to get a bigger window.....;) Thanks for the help.... Steven //* Steven Elliott
