I'm new at this VS/C++ thing too, but I do the following (the implicit way of loading DLLs): - in the Solution Explorer tree, select your project node - right-click and choose Properties (in the menu, click View / Property Pages) - in the Configuration Properties tree, choose Linker / Input - name the LIB file you wish to use in your project, filling "Additional Dependencies" in the right list; if you have one LIB for debug, and other for release, then you have to choose the appropriate option in the "Configuration" combo box above. I guess that's it. Forgive me if I forgot some steps, but I think you can continue from there... ;)
