What to do if you can't save changes to Picture.java

When you copy files from CD-ROMS they come in as read-only meaning that you can't change them. To fix this go to the directory that has the bookClasses in it. Select Picture.java, Picture.class, Sound.java, and Sound.class (You can select more than one file by holding down the "Ctrl" key while you select the files) and click the right mouse button one time. You will get a pop-up window. Click on "Properties" at the end of the pop-up window. You will see the properties of the files including a check-box that shows they are Read-only. Uncheck the "Read-only" check and click "Apply" and "Ok".
