This list continue to be a place.

I still wonder if there is some path issue.  Just because the dll is in
the same directory does not mean that Windows will look there if . (the
current directory) is not on your path.  As I recall (and I hope someone
will correct me!) the relevant environment variable is PATH, but it may
be a different one for finding dlls.  (I'm sure someone on the list can
clarify that point!)
