Bash script and export CLASSPATH

[Brian Rowe]

Hello,
If I export CLASSPATH=blah on the command line it
works fine.  If I write a shell program that sets the
CLASSPATH it won't set it!  When I echo the value its
right from the script, but when its done the CLASSPATH
is not set.  Any ideas on why this wouldn't work?

#!/bin/sh
export CLASSPATH="C:\jdk\lib\tools.jar"

Run that, then check echo $CLASSPATH at the command
line and CLASSPATH is the same.
odd?
