Path not working in win xp pro, can call java but not javac !

Question

Hello,
I just upgraded to win xp and set up the J2SDK. I have set the path variable in the environment settings.
when I tried to test this by typing java from my documents directory it works all right but not the javac command, to which it gives the error
"'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file."
when I type path then I get the following result -
PATH=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\FSC\PCOBOL32;C:\Program Files\FSC\PCOBOL32;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\BINN;c:\borland\bcc55\bin; c:\jdk1.4.0_01\bin;C:\FSC\PCOBOL32;C:\PROGRAM\PCOBOL32 , so my path settings are correct.
Why is this happening? Thanks for any help.

P.S. I also am also unable to invoke the c++ compiler from my documents, so I think this may be a problem with my path, but then how am i able to call the java.exe ?

In win xp you must type the name of the directory as Dos-8 format,
for example, if you want to use c:\J2sdk1.4.0_01 you must write in
the path c:\j2sdk1~1.0_0
