I'm using MSVC 2008. I can compile and run projects using Glut without issue. Now I am trying to include Glew. This is what I have done:

1) Downloaded the latest version of Glew from
http://glew.sourceforge.net/install.html

2) Installed glew files into the following (recommended) directories:

C:\Windows\System32\glew32.dll
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\lib\glew32.lib
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\lib\glew32s.lib
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\include\GL\glew.h
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\include\GL\glexw.h
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\include\GL\wglew.h

3) Added the following as Additional Dependencies under Linker Input,
opengl32.lib glu32.lib glut32.lib glew32.lib glew32s.lib

4) #include <GL/glew.h> before glut

When I compile, it still says:

1>Compiling...
1>main.cpp
1>Note: including lib: glut32.lib
1>Linking...
1>main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__glewInit
1>main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__glewGetString
1>main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__glewGetErrorString

So...why aren't the libraries getting linked in?

btw, I have also tried defining GLEW_STATIC and GLEW_BUILD, but the results are unchanged.

Yeah I didn't think the preprocessor definitions were necessary. If I remove glew32s from the list it doesn't make a difference.
