DX 7 and vc++ 6.0 linking problems

Hi.
I have tried to compile the directDraw DDex1 sample code provided with the DX7.0 sdk.But i get this strange link error:
-------------------------------------
ddex1.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _IID_IDirectDraw7
-------------------------------------
I am using vc++ 6.0(sp3)and have included the lib files acording to how the sdk wants me to do it. I have even tried to include the ddraw.lib in my workspace but that doesnt help either.
Anyone know what i could do wrong??

Link to dxguid.lib.

It defines all the external GUID's DX needs.
