How to force the use of JRE7?

im on a windows 8 operating system, and i would like to know how to force the use of java 7? I have java 7 on my computer, but at the moment it is defaulting to java 6.

I need java 7, because BungeeCord, Made by md_5 (www.spigotmc.org), only runs with java 7 :(.

Is there some sort of path i need to force it to use?

I have currently tried putting -d64 and -jar in the .bat file, which is not helping or doing anything (and i have have 32 bit java), and my start script is at the bare minimum.

Thanks, Joe

Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable and also point your path variable to the java 7 bin folder.

Here is a visual rep of how to set up.(Note: make changes to paths according ur system and also use version numbers correctly)
