hello what is the simple java command code for launching

Hi,
for this you need to sequence your different program files in any word application and save it with .bat extension.
for example I have a java file named Example.java
give sequence in the word file as
javac Example.java
java Example

and save the word file with anyname.bat extension
if you have differnt java files connected to each other you can give your programs name as your needs.

thanks but too confusing. google earth is on my desk top.
when it is clicked it opens the program files AND connects to
google earth. apparently you have to be connected to
their site for it to work, ..another google shit idea.
anyway ,how exactly ,step by step do you access the program files and then save a different set of them?? with
a new name..?? and how would the code look...
I am just making a quick launch button launch the desktop item... thanks..:rolleyes:

If you follow these steps an icon will be created when you click on that icon it will behave like your favourite google earth icon but remember that it is only for standalone programs.
