When you specify an executable with no path information, Windows will only look for the executable in the current directory and in those directories mentioned in the PATH environment variable. 

You can:
1. CD to the directory containing editcap (probably "C:\Program Filed\Ethereal", don't forget the double quotes if there are spaces in the path name), 2. Specify the path to editcap ("C:\Program Files\Ethereal\editcap" -r c:\capture\tr c:\capture\new 1-10000). 
3.  Add the path to the Ethereal directory to the PATH environment variable.

I'm trying to use editcap to break capture into smaller files. When I go
to the Windows command prompt and type:
Editcap -r c:capture\tr c:\capture\new 1-10000

Why do I get this error:
"editcap is not recognized as and internal or external command?"

Thanks in Advance
