Hi Waldemar, thanks for the instructions. I will try to build it one of these days and see how far i get. As for the zip, i installed it and it works, i can use the ldap lib now. So as you said, it indeed seems to be a problem with the Inno setup. Anyway, if the zip works, i'm happy :) If i get around to building it and if i succeed, i will post a more detailed report on how to do it.
