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 Derby database.
Tip: 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.

into the DERBYTUTOR directory. You will use these scripts
to create tables and add data to a new database, toursdb.
| Operating System |
Command |
| UNIX (Korn Shell) |
cp $DERBY_HOME/demo/programs/toursdb/*.sql .

Important: Include the dot (.)
at the end of each command so that your current working directory is included
in the classpath and the files are copied to the correct location.
