Please follow the provided steps, and let me know if need further help -

Start Command Prompt and Navigate to the folder that holds your class files:
C:> cd \mywork

Set path to include JDK’s bin. For example:
C:\mywork> path c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_09\bin;%path%

Compile your class(es):
C:\mywork> javac *.java

Create a manifest file:
C:\mywork> echo Main-Class: DanceStudio >manifest.txt

Create a jar file:
C:\mywork> jar cvfm DanceStudio.jar manifest.txt *.class

Test your jar:
C:\mywork> DanceStudio.jar
