java.lang error

[DTSMAN]

I have files that I created back when I took a Java class but now they don't work. I run them from a dos prompt. Javac compiles it just fine and creates the .class file, but when I run 'c:\java filename' I get the following error.
exception in thread "main" java.lang.noclassDefFoundError: filename
I googled this and got a ton of hits, and they all point to my class path. I have that set in the environment variables as:
classpath=c:\programfiles\java\jdk1.5.0_07\bin

I am running XPHome SP2.

I looked at that thread and it kind of pointed me the same way. It is the environment variable that is not working. I can run the file if I put it in the bin folder of the java folder. Kind of weird it use to work from anywhere and now it doesn't..I'll keep tinkering with it till I get, and post back if I find a definite answer someone else could possibly use.

Use the classpath, Luke.
