Try:

java -cp "D:\Install Files\ANTLR\antlr-source\bin" org.antlr.Tool

I am assuming the bin directory has (at least) the following structure:

bin
 +-org
    +-antlr
       +-analysis
       +-codegen
       +-misc
       +-runtime
       +-test  (optional?)
       +-tool

No harm in trying ANT btw. If it eases the task of (re-)building ANTLR for
you.

PS	Perhaps someone Nant/MSBuild user might create a Nant (or MSBuild)
build file based on the build.xml file?
