I get a slightly different message when I tried your way. I got: gxx.exe: hello.exe: No such file or directory (ENOENT) so it's possible that you have an installation problem, in which case reading the FAQ is your best bet. I'd try it with the altered command line first though. Ian. -----------== Posted via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==---------- http://www.dejanews.com/ Search, Read, Discuss, or Start Your Own
