trouble running clock demo

I'm a newbie to Ice and IceStorm. I've installed ICE on my desktop running Windows 7 Professional. I've implemented and run the Hello World demo in Java. I'm trying to get the clock demo running, but can't get through the first step in Readme, i.e. starting the ICEstorm service. When I execute "$ icebox --Ice.Config=config.icebox" I get an error from windows saying that icebox is an unknown program. I've checked to see that ICE_HOME is set to the ice installation directory and that %ICE_HOME%\bin is included in my PATH.

    Hi Bob,

    Welcome to our forums!

    This is most likely a PATH problem. Make sure your path is something like:
    PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\ZeroC\Ice-3.4.2\bin;...

    (with no double quotes)

    If you can't spot the issue, please post your PATH.

    Best regards,
    Bernard

    found problem

    I found my problem. My Path was wrong. I didn't have a space before "(x86)" in "C:\Program Files(x86)".
