You can active 'Install Packages on the fly' option in MikTeX Settings or use MikTeX Package Manager to download packages.

@sweetyBaby: What is your winedt version? – Ulrike Fischer Feb 13 '13 at 09:06

@UlrikeFischer 6.0 – sweetyBaby Feb 13 '13 at 09:09

Then it is possible that winedt is blocking the on-the-fly installation. Compile once in another editor (e.g. texworks which comes with miktex) or on the command line. Or install the missing packages with the package manager. – Ulrike Fischer Feb 13 '13 at 09:19

@UlrikeFischer thanks, I tried to install the missing packages with the package manager. The problem is solved, however, there is new problem says "tex\latex\pgf\frontendlayer\tikz.sty is missing", when I tried to solve it use the same method, the manager reported an error says "Windows API error 87: The parameter is incorrect." What's the problem? Thanks! – sweetyBaby Feb 13 '13 at 09:37

@sweetyBaby I've seen this error when trying to update or install some package and latex/pdflatex/... is still running on the background. – Ignasi Feb 13 '13 at 09:44
