What is my mistake in setting CLASSPATH?

I installed Netbeans and JDK1.7.0_40 in following directory 

Netbeans:
C:\Program Files\NetBeans 7.2

JDK path:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_40\

Next I tried to do the CLASSPATH thing following this website: http://www.wikihow.com/Install-the-Java-Software-Development-Kit

Under System Variable, I scroll to the end of PATH and added (without deleting anything)

;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_40\

But at command prompt when I type javac, it tells me 

javac not recognized as internal or external...

Where did I do wrong?

Add bin to the end of the Java path...

;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_40\;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_40\bin

javac lives in the bin directory...

You want another path and it is this one :)

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_40\bin
