Pisharath, I do not think that you can get away without installing the base MQSeries Client for your platform. It will add entries to the registry, update environment variables, provide conversion tables and the like. The DLLs alone just don't do the job. You don't need to install everything (toolkit, samples, docs, etc.) and you can perform a silent install if you wish to keep the installation footprint small. Library files (.LIB) are generally only needed during build time, the runtime environment just makes use of the DLL files that come with the MQ client installation. My 2 cents, Stefan
