dlls are usually not $linklib'ed in FPC. What happens if you simply omit the
linklib?

Well, then the linker complains about unresolved symbols.

Does that mean that LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress must be called for all 
external dll calls ?

Anyway, the "not found" message is confusing. I suggest a clarification in the section about 
{$linklib} in the Free Pascal Programmer’s Guide that only static libraries can be linked.

Thanks for your reply.
