help needed - installation, debuging and variables

1)I get startup error messages:
"cannot load c:\php\php_curl.dll - the specified file cannot be found"
although the file is very much there at exactly that location
Not only for this file but for many extension files like php_mysql.dll,
php_oracle.dll, php_mssql.dll, php_exif.dll etc.

2)the extensions_dir setting is "c:\php" without an ending backslash.

3)The php.ini file is residing at c:\php

4)The php.ini file in c:\windows has all extensions disabled so it does
not look as though that php.ini file is the source of the messages

5)There is a extension entry for php_win32api.dll which also gives a
not found error.
Is it the older version of php_win32std.dll, php_win32service.dll and
php_win32scheduler.dll files which are present but
their names are not there by default in the php.ini ?

6)How do I debug PHP like you can debug Java in Eclipse or NetBeans and
C/C++ in MS Visual Studio?

7)database access through odbc works.

8)How do I install PHP as both a CGI extension under Apache 2.0.5x and
as a module (php5apache2.dll with a LoadModule in httpd.conf)

9)How do you pass variables between forms or php pages in general?

Thanks in advance,
Joseph S.
