no not the textpad that comes with windows, i actually downloaded textpad 5.3 after downloading and installing java 6 update 17. Normally with windws xp i was able to download and when i installed textpad after java, it would already have the java applet compile and stuff like that under the configure---->preferences----> tools option it doesnt do that on windows 7 and im wondering how i can get it to have those in the tools/add menu in preferences.
