Trying to get ECLIPSE going

Hello,

I'm trying to get ECLIPSE up and going and this popped up!

Any ideas?

Thanks much!

java.version=1.3.1_01

Eclipse is trying to run using a 1.3 JVM - Eclipse 3.x requires at least 1.4.2.

So, set java_home to point to the appropriate place, or I think you can pass an option to eclipse.exe to do the same.
