DOS limitations?

Hello,

I have noticed that when I try to change my CLASSPATH from a DOS prompt on Windows 98, there is a limit to the number of characters that I can type in. Therefore, I have resorted to changing the CLASSPATH in my Autoexec.bat file and rebooting my machine. This has worked successfully up until now. I am trying to change my CLASSPATH to the following in my Autoexec.bat file, but I am getting some Java errors that typically would result from an incorrect CLASSPATH statement (line breaks added for readability):

SET CLASSPATH=.;
C:\PROGRA~1\JMF21~1.1\LIB\SOUND.JAR;
C:\PROGRA~1\JMF21~1.1\LIB\JMF.JAR;
C:\jdk1.2.2\xalan-j_2_3_1\bin\xalan.jar;
C:\jdk1.2.2\xalan-j_2_3_1\bin\xercesImpl.jar;
C:\jdk1.2.2\xalan-j_2_3_1\bin\xml-apis.jar

The Java error messages refer to not being able to find import files that are stored in the last three .jar files.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!
