    And, as i said earlier i recommend you to leave the Path alone and just copy the dll's (this way you will get prepared for deploying your application on other systems)
    What do you exactly mean by that? Copy the .dll's where?

    read step 3 on this page: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/install-win.html

    Also, you should be able to run your program from the <filename>-build-desktop folder by opening a Qt prompt:
    Start-Programs-Qt SDK (version)-Qt Command Prompt

    This prompt should have the path set correctly for finding all dll's for mingw and Qt. Unless of course if your executable depends on other 3rd party dll's, then you will have to deal with those in a similar fashion by placing them in the path or copying them to the said folder.

    In general, you can only run a program from the command line if:
    1) the executable is in the current folder, or
    2) the executable's location is in the path

    same applies to DLL's

    If you want to deploy, then look at this web page: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/deployment-windows.html

    Thank you all for your answers.

    Everything works great now, I choose desktop app, works fine, then Sybian or Maemo still fine. I am very glad. Much appreciated.

    Let's say now though, you develop an application you want for Sybian. You test it and it works like a charm and you decide to "export" it. Is this the right way to say it? Anyway, what I am trying to say is that, you want to install it on your phone or even share on a forum or with friends.

    How would you do that? Is there something additional to be done?
    Regards,
