libgncmod-engine.dll was not found

[Clifton Liles]

Hi Derek
Thanks for the reply.  I have tried reinstalling in the new directory, 
twice.  No joy.
I took you advice and did a search in the registry for cnucash and found 
several entries, but all of them have the correct drive and directory 
information.  I also checked the application and system event logs but 
there is no message from gnucash or a system error/warning/information 
message.  The  install program is 'gnucash-2.2.9-setup' so I assume that 
I am using gnucash 2.2.9.

Thanks for your help
Cliff
