#1 How do you install?

[Anonymous]

Hello,

We are in the process of monitoring database reporting
tools, and have come across JasperReports. We will be
reporting from Oracle and SQL server databases. We
have downloaded both JasperReports 0.6.4, and
JasperDesigner 0.1.1. The problem is that I cannot
seem to install the gui. I'm not sure if we've downloaded
all the necessary pieces, and was hoping that someone
could lead me down the right path. We've downloaded
the following programs:
jasperdesign-0.1.1.tar.gz
jasperdesign-0.1.1.zip
jasperreports-0.6.4-project.zip
jasperdesign-install-0.1.1.jar
jasperreports-0.6.4-applet.jar
jasperreports-0.6.4.jar

We operate on an NT system over Windows XP.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

install jasperdesign from the command prompt using " java
-jar jasperdesign-install-0.1.1.jar" . This procedure
generates a ".bat" file at the desktop. If it fails to call
the GUI, edit it adding "" surrounding "C:\program
files\jasper_design_dir"
