Do you have a debug version of the DLL?

A release version does not contain the embedded information required to support the debugger.

Yes the dll has been compiled with debug option ( I created a VS2005 application and I try to debug dll and everithing works fine ) but when I try to debug DLL with the PGadmin.exe VS2005 gives me an error "No debug information Symbols not found"

Is there a copy of the .pdb file from the dll project in the same folder as the dll?

That is your program database for debugging the dll.

There is also a .pdb for the project that uses the dll. I believe you need both .pdb files in the debug folder of the project being debugged.
