I have also installed R 1.70 including the src (source code) folder.  But when I attempt to create the dll by excecuting "Rcmd SHLIB [-o autologdll] combo.f", in the windows command prompt, I get the following error message "'make' is not recognized as an internal or external command"

"make" is a utility that's used in the build process.  You can get
copies of all the utilities you need from Brian Ripley's web page as
described in $RHOME/readme.packages.

You didn't mention that you had installed a Fortran compiler.  If you
haven't installed the recommended compiler (MinGW), you might find
that some more work will be needed to get the scripts to work.
