Lynn, The error message means that "java.exe" is not on the path or classpath for your workstation. You can try this: 1. start>run 2. type in cmd 3. actuate RUN button. 4. at prompt [command window open] type "java" 5. strike the ENTER key. If you get the same message, it means the following: 1. Java is not installed on your PC TEST HERE: http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp 2. Java is not set in the Environmental Variables for you (as a user or for the workstation). My Computer>Properties>Advanced>Environmental Variables You can: 1. install java 2. set Environmental Variables (locally or globally) 3. Edit Batch file. Are you using the WORKSHOP folder set? If you are then the batch files are located at: WORKSHOP\BATCH\*.bat I can troubleshoot with you more if you like.

Recently I had to reinstall Notetab Pro and I can't get Saxon to do the transformation. I get the following error: 'java' is not recognizable as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Anyone run into and solve this? Thank you.
