bill, 
are you using windows95 or 3.x?
I had to add this path in my autoexec to get gnat to compile anything:

rem gnat junk that i had to add
echo off
set PATH=C:\ADAGNAT\bin;%path%
SET PATH=C:\ADAGNAT\GW-GNAT;%PATH%;
set TMPDIR=C:\ADAGNAT\tmp
set GO32TMP=C:\ADAGNAT\tmp
set GO32=topline C:\ADAGNAT\drivers\vga.grd gw 640 gh 480
set DJGPP=C:\ADAGNAT\djgpp.env
set ADA_INCLUDE_PATH=C:\ADAGNAT\adainc
set ADA_OBJECTS_PATH=C:\ADAGNAT\lib\adalib
set GW-GNAT=C:\ADAGNAT\gw-gnat
rem end gnat junk

to syntax check:
gnat1 -gnatl yourfile.adb

you must use the extention .adb

to compile:
gcc -c yourfile.adb

to link:
gnatbl yourfile.ali

to run your program type (at the prompt):
yourfile

GOOD LUCK!
