Having problems with Java compiler J2SDK 1.4.2?

Question

I am studying Java and have downloaded the package JDK from Sun MIcrosystem. I am running Win98 2nd.ed. I am trying to do the first example HelloWorld and it does not work. I typed the code in the Dos edit window and saved it, then like the book says in a second window I ran javac to compile it and then I tried to run it. I get an error message file not found. With text pad I get something going but still does not work and get an error message, I followed the help instructions and inserted in the autoexec bat the line C:\j2sdk 1.4.2_12 but it does not work.Getting desperate. Can you help?
