Ok I'm ignorant as to Windows linking. What exactly does this mean? Can
you use Aspell dll using in VC++ compiled programs. Try compiling the
example programs in VC++ and try linking them with the Cwgwin compiled
dlls to make sure they are now problems. If that works try a small C++
program.

Your welcome. I spend a rather large amount of effort in them.

Mainly providing the binaries and providing minimal support for them. As
I release new versions of Aspell there are sure to be problems which I
expect you to be able to resolve.
