Hello Mike,

You can make the lib from the DLL supplied with Scilab:

1) use dumpbin to get the exported symbols (dumpbin /symbols libfftw3-3.dll)
2) make a def file out of those (first line EXPORTS, each following 
line an exported symbol name)
3) use the lib utility to generate the import lib (lib 
/def:libfftw3-3.def /out:libfftw3-3.lib /machine:x86)

Hope that helps,

Best wishes,

Jasper.
