Khalid,
The message you obtained means that the Motif library isn't included in
your LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You probably need the environmental variable
set with at least:

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/dt/lib:/usr/openwin/lib:/opt/SUNWspro/lib

Since Sun does not place their libraries in the /usr/lib search path,
they require the use of the above environmental variable to
tell the operating system where to look for the libraries.
