[Haskell-cafe] installing Sqlite3 driver for windows

I'm working from Real World Haskell, trying to install HDBC and 
the Sqlite3 driver on Windows XP. It was easy enough to use Cabal 
to install HDBC. However, for the Sqlite3 driver things get 
fuzzy. I downloaded hdbc-sqlite3_2.1.0.0.zip, but don't know what 
I'm supposed to do with it.

Also, it wasn't clear what to do with the sqlite3.dll file. On 
this page

<http://software.complete.org/software/wiki/hdbc/FrequentlyAskedQuestions>

it seems to imply you need to put it in

'gch --print-libdir'\include

and

%windir%\system32

but that page is really about building the driver from source. 
Maybe it only needs to go in the system32 directory.

Thanks,
Mike
