javaw doesn't work

Hello:

I have just downloaded and installed JRE and SDK 1.4.2_01 onto my system.
According to the book I'm reading, javaw app ( where app is the name of the
class I created ) is supposed to bring up a "windowed application". This is
not what happens. I get a dos prompt back from the dos window I type the
command in but nothing else. The book from which I'm getting the
instructions from is for 1.3 ... but that shouldn't make a difference?! I
even tried creating a batch file...no joy. Help!
