Adding the directory to the PATH variable isn't sufficient.  You
need to add the path to the file saxon.jar in the CLASSPATH variable.

Make sure your environment variable called CLASSPATH that contains
the path to saxon.jar.  Once you've done that, java can then find
com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet and Saxon can then process your document.

The binary form is a prepackaged version of the same code; it's a 
convenience for people who don't want/need to deal with setting up Java
to run Saxon on Windows.  :-)
