User32.lib was not found. How can I get that?

[Beginner]

My project name is Test and my C file name is main.c when I try to build my Test project I get a build failed along with this trace as shown below: -



Running "C:\cygwin\bin\make.exe -f Makefile CONF=Debug" in C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\NetBeansProjects\Test



/usr/bin/make -f nbproject/Makefile-Debug.mk SUBPROJECTS= .build-conf

make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/Owner/My Documents/NetBeansProjects/Test'

make: *** [.build-impl] Error 2



Build failed. Exit value 2.



I think it has to do with User32.lib is not found. Is there a way I can download this file from somewhere or is there some easy fix to this problem. Can someone please help me resolve this problem.

What return 'cygcheck -c' and 'cygcheck -r -s' commands?

I have attached a text file with the same information I pasted in my previous post. The information in the text file is in a clear and ordered format for your convenience. Let me know if this helps.
