Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I still can't get it to work. I've taken some screenshots so you can see my setup better:

I'm including C:\lib\TXF\TXF.h with a simple #include <TXF.h> which seems to work fine.

I'm trying to use the lib C:\lib\TXF\TXF.lib, and that's the bit that doesn't seem to work for some reason.

My error output is:

Thanks again for any help, much appreciated.
