OK, so you're creating a PostgreSQL module implementing one or more
SQL-callable functions in C. When you load it into the server with
`CREATE FUNCTION' ?

Assuming that the file is, in fact, on the path you've specified: Is it
possible that your DLL links to other DLLs that are not on the
PostgreSQL server's path? If your DLL links to another that cannot be
found, that error message is the one you'll get.
Dependency walker (depends.exe) from http://dependencywalker.com/ may
help you track that down.
