You should have the following LIB/DLLs present wherever they may be:

I've also got a couple other files in that directory for whatever reason:



When you click on Post Reply, there is an area titled "Additional Options" with a "Manage Attachments" button. Click on that button and another pop-up window should appear where you can browse files on your computer and then click on the "Upload" button for each file you wish to attach. When you're done with all the files you want to attach you can close the pop-up window with the "Close this Window" button. When you finally post, those files will be attached to your post.
this statement ...
Code:
sqlExcp.getMessage()
its what's throwing "Access violation reading location 0xcccccccc", i doubt if it has anything to do with the libraries ...

This code
Code:
conn = env->createConnection(strUser,strPass,strConn);
probably threw an exception and was catched ...
Code:
    try
    {
        cout << "Enter password for user YOUR_USER_HERE: ";
        cin >> strPass;
        conn = env->createConnection(strUser,strPass,strConn);
    }

    // HERE ... 
    catch (SQLException &sqlExcp)
    {
        cerr << sqlExcp.getMessage() << "Press a key to continue..." << endl;
        cin.ignore();						// Ignore previous ws
        cin.get();
        Environment::terminateEnvironment(env);
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }
but then somehow sqlExcp.getMessage() is throwing another exception ???
