    Hello,

    to open a batch file, right-click on it, then click on 'open with', and choose notepad.

    Best regards.

    I right-clicked on it, but the context menu does not contain "open with"; it only has the open option.

      Thank you, I can open the file with Notepad
      but I want to execute it since the execution instructions indicate that the .bat file should be executed
      also, I cannot understand the code it contains
      here is the code:

      @echo off REM Should update the java path below
      java -Xmx256M -cp JInsect.jar;lib/openjgraph.jar gr.demokritos.iit.jinsect.gui.AutoSummENGGui

      thanks again

    or you can open Notepad and open the .bat file with it.
    If you want to see the execution result, add a line with the word pause at the end of the file.

    Once you have properly configured your environment variable, the content of the .bat file is used to compile the AutoSummENGGui.java class

    your file allocates 256MB of memory to the JVM and then loads the two jars JInsect.jar;lib/openjgraph.jar and compiles your AutoSummENGGui class

    @echo off REM Should update the java path below
    java -Xmx256M -cp JInsect.jar;lib/openjgraph.jar gr.demokritos.iit.jinsect.gui.AutoSummENGGui

      No, it's not a password but PAUSE

      it's to prevent the command prompt from closing once the commands in this bat file have been executed, and it allows seeing what it has done.

    I can open the file with Notepad as described by "nathom"
    but I don't understand the code it contains
    here is the code:

    @echo off
    REM Should update the java path below
    java -Xmx256M -cp JInsect.jar;lib/openjgraph.jar gr.demokritos.iit.jinsect.gui.AutoSummENGGui

    Hello,

    This .bat is intended to execute the "program" or rather the Java project contained in the JInsect.jar archive.

    To run it and see any messages related to its execution in the console, you need to go to Start / Run
    There, type cmd in the text box, then press [enter].
    A command window (pseudo DOS) opens, and you need to navigate to the directory where your .bat is stored on your PC.
    For example, if the command prompt displays C:\Documents and Settings\ellsamig>
    And the .bat is located under C:\Documents and Settings\ellsamig\Project\
    => You should type CD Project [Enter]
    Then, once you are in the right directory, simply type the name of your .bat file (without ".bat"), followed by the [enter] key.

      I did everything you said
      but the following message is displayed "offREM Should update the java path below
      offREM Should update the java path below
      java -Xmx256M -cp JInsect.jar;lib/openjgraph.jar gr.demokritos.iit.jinsect.gui.AutoSummENGGui
      'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
      what's the problem???
      I have the JDK, JRE and JAVA virtual machine installed on my PC

      The problem in this case is that you haven't set the HAVA_HOME variable in the environment variables to point to the JDK (e.g., C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_30).

      That's why when you type a -java command, it is not recognized by your system.

      Test in a command prompt >> java -version
      If you don't see something that looks like the text below, then your variable is not set:

      java version "1.6.0_30"
      Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_30-b12)
      Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.5-b03, mixed mode)
