Please follow the instructions in the documentation of SimMechanics Link, especially Linking and Unlinking SimMechanics Link Software with Pro/ENGINEER. You need to:

1. Create a New or Locate an Existing Pro/TOOLKIT Application Registry File
2. Inserte the SimMechanics Link Registration Text into the Registry File (that's where you reference the DLL)
3. Locate the Existing or Create a New Pro/ENGINEER Configuration File
4. Specify the Pro/TOOLKIT Application Registry File Path in the Pro/ENGINEER Configuration File
5. Configure your Pro/E shortcut on your desktop to start in the directory where the Pro/E configuration file is located.

HTH,
