Bill, You need to generate the libsqlite3.a library, which you can do with dlltool. I don't remember the syntax off the top of my head, but it's fairly simple. It will use the .def file to associate the exported functions in the DLL with a handle in the .a file. Once you link to the .a file your binary will automagically load the DLL file when it runs. If your distribution doesn't include a DLL you can generate a static libsqlite3.a library by compiling everything into a static library except the tcl bindings and the command line client file (don't remember the name for this, something like client.c). Static binaries definitely make for easier distribution. Clay -- Lazarus Notes from Lazarus Internet Development http://www.lazarusid.com/notes/ Articles, Reviews and Commentary on web development
