Adding Lib files to projects

A real quick one, how do you add lib files to projects?

You link a .lib using the linker.

How depends on the compiler - I assume VC++ (from your prior post).

Add the .lib to the project by:
- clicking INSERT | FILE then select .lib file.

OR

- click BUILD | SETTINGS -- LINK -- add to object/library modules the name of the .lib file.
