I did that for both the PATH/CLASSPATH and Compiler sections, but it
still gives me the same error.  It points to C:\GNAT\bin.  Which is
where I unzipped the gnat binaries to.  I got the gnat binaries from:
"http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=12974"
I went via Settings->Compiler Settings->Workspace on the menu.  Is
there another spot?

@Anh Vo:  I would use GPS except AdaCore no longer makes it available
from their libre site.  And being that I'm using jGRASP for personal
learning, it wouldn't make sense for me to buy my own copy of GPS.
