pgaccess for windows

From

Hello,
I have downloaded pgaccess for windows and when I try to launch
pgaccess.tcl I get "couldn't load file "libpgtcl.dll": invalid argument
while executing "load libpgtcl.dll" (procedure "main" line 4) invoked from
within "main $argc $argv"".
Do I need to specify a path for wish to find the dll or am I missing
something? I am running Nt 4.
Thanx for your help.
J.Francois.

Hmm, did you download the pgaccess.zip file? that contains pgaccess.tcl,
libpgtcl.dll, and libpq.dll on a single folder. After unzipping, leave
the pgacess.tcl file in that folder, and launch it directly from there. It
should have no problem finding its libraries, then.

P.S. what versions of pgaccess and tcl/tk do you have installed?
