The message "The specified module could not be found" comes from 
Windows.  It probably means that your dll depends on some other dll and 
the other one is unavailable, but it might mean that AceTest.dll itself 
can't be loaded (permission problems, defective dll, etc.) In some cases 
Windows will pop up a dialog box with more information than that skimpy 
message, e.g. if you install the package and try to run library(AceTest) 
  from within Rgui.
