Help with DirectInput

[The_Goat()]

I am attempting to program a joystick enumalator with DirectInput.
I got it to where my code finally appears to work, but now I get some linker errors.

 [Linker error] undefined reference to `IID_IDirectInput8A' 
 [Linker error] undefined reference to `DirectInput8Create@20' 
 [Linker error] undefined reference to `GUID_XAxis' 
 [Linker error] undefined reference to `GUID_YAxis'

...and so on.
I have linked dinput.lib,dinput8.lib, all the ones I can find.
And when I link dxguid.lib, some of them vanish, but I get another error:

  .drectve `/DEFAULTLIB:"uuid.lib" /DEFAULTLIB:"uuid.lib" 'unrecognized

Am I not linking something? Bad Code, perhaps?
Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Make sure you define what version of DirectInput you want BEFORE you include it's header.
I have no idea why they designed it this way, but if you don't do this, it won't work.

Thanks, but... it doesn't really change anything.

I put:

#define DIRECTINPUT_VERSION 0x0800
#include <dinput.h>
#include <dinputd.h>

EDIT:
Never mind, I just needed different versions of the libraries then I had-
works OK now.
