Thanks for the response. Using Dependency Walker helped me to realize that I
was attempting to link a 32 bit program to 64 bit DLLs. I downloaded the
binaries for a 32 bit version of Postgres and used the DLLs that come with
it. Everything works perfectly now.
Thanks!  Lynn

I don't know a lot about Windows.

First, why are you trying to use the precompiled libpq.dll you have with
other libraries
than the ones that were included?

For one, I know that EDB's PostgreSQL binaries use a different C runtime
(msvc*.dll)
for versions 9.3 and 9.4.  Maybe that is your problem.

There is an excellent tool, Dependency Walker
(http://dependencywalker.com/),
that can help you debug problems of this kind.

Yours,
