In my signature you will find a link to the tutorial i put together regarding linking a static library, and I am working on one that is for DLLs. As we are now working in the context of MSVS you are much more free to leverage standard techniques and practices to import your code than ever before. DLLs can be imported with calls to LoadLibrary, and you procedures with a lookup routine called GetProcAddress.
For more detailed information you will likely need to wait for my formal Tutorial available some time this coming week.
