Sweety, When you are using javac there is .java at end which DOS can see as a file and so it works out, but while you run it you don't give .java extension to your file so its considering it as a dir name itself. You can try this to run it-:
C:\>java -cp "program files\ibm\jprog" primary
Check it out
Note- Here cp stands for classpath, you can check what all option you can use by simply giving java and javac commands in DOS.

You need to set the classpath. Try using the following command
