I hope John has seen all the recent discussions on Windows
installation of Lilypond in this list. 

LaTeX will find an input file if it is either in the default
search paths (with an updated file database) or if the path
is included in the variable TEXINPUTS. The normal solution 
for Lilypond on Windows is probably the latter, but I thought
that this was set automatically in ly2dvi. I pass the
question back to James or someone else who has managed to 
run Lilypond on Windows, do you have TEXINPUTS set in the
shell?
