Hi Guys,
            I have just begun coding in tcl/tk and hence sorry for this
simple question.
            I am using tcl8.3 / tk8.3  and postgreSQL 7.3 . I am not able to
load pgtclsh library into to my TK application for giving it backend
support.
            Can you please suggest me how to proceed?

Thanks,
           Amit
