Generate import libraries for third party dLL

[LOSTINLAB]

I want to include the nonlinear fitting module in the labwindows software. And I have got the dll file and it's header. 

I have some difficulties to generate the import library. Is there anyone can help me. 

I have attached the files. They can also be found in the following link.

The fact is I don't know how to generate the library in labwindows

It's described in the help in LabWindows/CVI. http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370051AG-01/cvi/programmerref/generatingimportlib/

Thanks for your reply. 

However, I haven't generate the desired .lib file. I have attached the files. Could you please have a look?

Best,

Give the same name to your .h and .dll. Open the .h, [Tools][Generate Import Library], add the result to your project, add the include to your .c, use the functions from the dll and that's the gist of it.
