On a win32 platform you need also the gtk libraries. You can get them from: ftp://lazarus.freepascal.org/lazarus/gtk-dlls.zip or http://user.sgic.fi/~tml/gimp/win32 Download the gtk+, glib, and extralibs DLLs from this site. Due to constant changes in these files we do not maintain direct links to the files. Place the dlls in your \windows\system or \winnt\system32 dir Marc
