Creating a directory and copying scripts into the directory
To help you complete this activity, you must create a directory
and copy several scripts into the new directory. You will use these scripts
to quickly add tables and data to a new database.
A command prompt appears after each command is run.
If an error occurs, verify the syntax and retype the command.
Open a command window and change to a directory where you want
to store the files that you create during the self-study tutorial activities.
Create the DERBYTUTOR directory. DERBYTUTOR will
be your working directory for this activity.
