title: Visual Studio 2012 - error LNK1104: cannot open file 'glew32.lib'
body: <p>I am having issues compiling a basic openGL program on VS 2012.  I get a build error upon compiltation giving me: </p>
  
  <pre><code>1&gt;LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'glew32.lib'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I followed the instructions given to me by the documentation for GLEW.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>In your OpenGL project open Project -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies -> add glew32.lib.</p>
    
    <p>Also you must include #include  in your sources; For that add path to your glew folder: Project -> Properties -> Configuration Properies -> General -> VC++ Directories -> Include Directories and Library Directories;</p>
    
    <p>C/C++ Tab -> General -> Additional Include Directories - Add lib folder there</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I have also added the glew32.dll onto my Debug folder within my project folder along with the executable. So far I keep getting this error.</p>
  
  <p><strong>If you need any more further clarification of the steps I have done please don't hesitate to ask</strong></p>
