Lots of undeclared identifiers related to OpenGL using GLFW

I'm trying to set up an OpenGL project using GLFW in Visual c++ 2008 (Windows 7). I have added the GLFW include and library directories to the project's include and library paths, and I have put the following in additional dependencies:

GLFW.lib glu32.lib opengl32.lib

That is everything I need to do, isn't it? But when I try to compile any OpenGl program (except an extremely simple one that only clears the screen using glClear) I get a bunch of undeclared identifier and identifier not found erros. Any Idea why this can happen? Here is the complete error list:

The problem is spelled out pretty clearly on the OpenGL Wiki's Getting Started page. Your problem is that you don't have a mechanism to load OpenGL functions, which is a necessary step in using OpenGL. You are strongly encouraged to use a library to do that.
