Thank you very much.
The PATH selection solved the problem.
everything works now.
Thank you again
I just tried installing a copy of 2023b on a windows machine, and I
noticed that (contrary to what my understanding was) the tickbox for
adding the gretl dir to the PATH was on by default.
We have discussed this problem yesterday at a developer meeting, and
Allin gave very good reasons why in a standard installation the default
should be "off": basically, we don't want other programs to be disturbed
by different versions of the same DLL that come with gretl.
It is possible that this setting is memorised somewhere in the windows
registry (or whatever it's called), because the PC I used already had a
previous version of gretl installed, for which the path setting could
have been originally set to "on".
