Bloody Errors

Question

Hi, I have some code that I am just messing around with and it won't run... compiles fine, but gives me the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: C:\Documents and Settings\me\Desktop\Code\Java\BasicText/java
Exception in thread "main" " error.
could someone help me? I run it with the code
C:\Java\bin\appletviewer.exe BasicText.class
and it is in the proper folder.
import java.awt.*;
public class BasicText extends Frame
     public static void main(String args[])
          new BasicText();
     public BasicText()
          setTitle("Basic Text");
          setLayout(new FlowLayout());
          setSize(250, 250);
          Label label = new Label("Label");
          TextArea textarea = new TextArea("Text Area", 5, 20);
          Panel panel = new Panel();
          panel.add(label);
          panel.add(textarea);
          add(panel);
          setVisible(true);

The is common problem. The command is correct, you need to set CLASSPATH or use the -cp option with the correct directory. Or you could use an IDE which sets this up for you. e.g http://www.netbeans.org or http://www.eclipse.org/
