c++.windows.32-bits - Does implib /s switch work?

Using 

implib /s C:\......\msvfw32.lib c:\.......\msvfw32.dll

the file msvfw32.lib is generated but there's no "_" prepend to import function.
Linker gives me errors (becouse it can't find some functions). On my partial
compiled file there's a reference for msvfw32.dll but all functions are defined
without "_" !

Yes, it works.

Building the .lib with this command:
implib.exe /s msvfw32.lib C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvfw32.dll

I can create this program:

#include <windows.h>
extern "C" {
BOOL GetOpenFileNamePreview(LPOPENFILENAME lpofn);
}
void OnFileOpen()
{
    static char Filter[] = "jpg (*.jpg)\0*.jpg\0All (*.*)\0*.*\0";
    char CurrentFileName[1024];
    OPENFILENAME OpenFilename;
    memset(&OpenFilename, 0, sizeof(OpenFilename));
    OpenFilename.lStructSize = sizeof(OpenFilename);
    OpenFilename.hwndOwner = 0;
    OpenFilename.hInstance = 0;
    OpenFilename.lpstrFilter = Filter;
    OpenFilename.lpstrFile = CurrentFileName;
    OpenFilename.nMaxFile = sizeof(CurrentFileName);
    OpenFilename.Flags = OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST;
    OpenFilename.lpstrDefExt = "txt";

    if(GetOpenFileNamePreview(&OpenFilename))
    {
    }
}

int main()
{
    OnFileOpen();
}

And compile it with:
dmc ofn.cpp msvfw32.lib

And it works.

Hey you didn't use any function inside lib :) Try to define one of them!

The code use GetOpenFileNamePreview.

If I don't link to msvfw32.lib I get:

ofn.obj(ofn)
  Error 42: Symbol Undefined _GetOpenFileNamePreview

So I think I use GetOpenFileNamePreview from the lib/dll.
