Please, Help with linking UDF precompiled outside fluent to fluent!!!

People, anybody help me please!

I wrote an UDF for a sinusoidal pitching movement of a NACA0012 profile.

I didn't succeed compiling it from the graphical user interface (operational system: windows) and then I compiled it from the visual studio 2008 command prompt window. Both the udf.obj and the libudf.dll were successfuly created.

Then I proceed reading the UDF manual to make the procedure for linking precompiled objects from non-Fluent and it didn't work.

I went to the libudf directory as is asked in the UDF Manual and I wrote the command:

make "FLUENT_ARCH=ntx86"

and received the following answer:
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

I would like to ask what should I do. Should I move the makefile to the libudf directory?

has anybody ever done this procedure before?

Thanks in advance for the help
