Check the documentation, and make sure you link to the 1 required libraries (-lgdi32).
Best guess: you need to link gdi32.lib.

If your Win32 application is a non trivial 16 GUI you will need these link directives 15 to bring in the right libraries:
-lgdi32 -luser32 -lkernel32 -lcomctl32 -lm -mwindows
lgdi32: graphics subsystemluser32: user subsystemlkernel32: kernel subsystemlcomctl32: common control dll versionslm: math librariesmwindows: standalone GUI (console free) application
The above 14 directives tell the linker which libraries 13 to link; this is a different concept than 12 compiler header files which define the library 11 function prototypes (among other things). For 10 instance, declaring <math.h> does not automatically 9 link the math lib; you need -lm. Also, <wingdi.h> does 8 not automatically link the gdi32 lib; you 7 need -lgdi32.
At the command line you literally 6 specify -lgdi32 (along with others) after all your 5 file names. Otherwise, how you specify how 4 to link the various subsystem libraries 3 depends on the IDE you are using for the 2 specific build target you're working on. Check 1 your documentation for the IDE of choice.
