You simply download the DLL and include it in the same directory as the 
EXE of your application, or install it to a global location like 
System32 directory.

    ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/fpc/contrib/windows/

For more details:

And if all else fails, you can also look at the official Free Pascal 
documentation:

I've connected to SQL Server instances from FreeBSD, Linux and Windows - 
all without much trouble - once I followed the documentation.
