	What version of Tcl did you install on your machine?

	Make sure you run the install.tcl first.  cgi_get_query is in the index
  which is used to look up the place to find the function when it's not already
  loaded.  As an alternative, explicitly load the DLL at the beginning of the
  script (I believe the command is loaddll).

    If you're upgrading from 3.51 to 4.0 shouldn't it already be there?

	I have no idea what you are talking about.  You asked a question on
  Tcl, not on NT.  They have nothing to do with each other.

    Let's start over - We had Tcl 7.3 working on Windows NT 3.51 and now 
    we've upgraded to Windows NT 4.0 and our scripts files don't work.  We
    got the following:
    
    invalid command name: "cgi_get_query" 
    
    We re-ran the 'install.tcl' script, per your suggestion in .5, and we're 
    still getting:
    
    invalid command name: "cgi_get_query" 
    
    What I was referring to in .6 was if things were working in NT 3.51 I
    assume the Registry values or whatever should already be installed and
    correct or does installing NT 4.0 erase/clean-up some of these values.
    
    Is Tcl 7.3 supported in Windows NT 4.0? via an upgrade from NT 3.51? Or 
    should we upgrade to Tcl 7.latest?

	There is no reason that Tcl 7.3 won't work on NT 4.0 that I'm aware of.
  The fact that you got that error seems to confirm it.  In the upgrade some
  of the system environmental variables may have gotten wiped out.  Go into
  the Control Panel, select System, and in the Environment Tab, check to make
  sure that TCL_LIBRARY is defined and points to the location of the DLL's
  that you need for Tcl and that the TclCgi.dll is in that location along with
  tclindex which contains the information needed to autoload the TclCgi DLL.
  Make sure you define it in the System area, so that all users and processes
  get it and make sure that you restart IIS to ensure that it sees it.
  If you don't have these files in there it won't work and you will get the
  errors you reported.  Also make sure you are using the version I put together
  as an addon to the version made available on the original NT Roadmap.  This
  7.3 Tcl version with my addon is on all the versions of the Internet Roadmap.
  It is also available from my Website at URL:

  Look in the Intel or Alpha Kits area for the binaries.

    We'll check this out.
    
    Do you know of any issues with Netscape Enterprise Server?  The systems
    that were running 3.51 with Netscape communication server were also
    upgrade to 4.0 and Netscape Enterprise Server and we're getting the
    same message.
