Hi,

I recently downloaded PostgreSQL native port for Windows.  I could not find libpq.lib.  I am trying to link my win32
applicationwith libpq statically.  How can I link libpq statically to my application?  I could not find libpqdll.lib
eitherto link dynamically.  But there is a libpq.dll in the distribution. 

Thank you very much in advance,
Sagar.

What's your application build environment?  If you are using visual
studio use it to build libpq and it produces a .lib file.  Same for
Borland.
