Dear Mr. Murdoch, Dear Mr. Ripley, Dear Mr. Wang, thank you very much for your quick and efficient help! It is exactly as Duncan explained it: Including jvm.dll in PATH solved the problem immediately. Everything works fine now.
The only thing is, that I do not understand why I had to do this manualy, as I installed Java Runtime Environment a long time ago, updated frequently and never encountered any difficulties in using Java software. Anyway, I am happy now :-) Thanx again for your great support!
