C++ QT libXL Error: "During Startup program exited with code 0xc0000135" - c++

Question

I am trying to write a QT application that uses libXL, but when I try to compile, I get a pop up box saying "During Startup program exited with code 0xc0000135". I have figured out exactly which line causes the problem, it is the "Book* book = xlCreateBook();" line in startgame.cpp. When I comment this line out, the program runs fine. Is it possible that I set up the library incorrectly? I will try to include all relevant code below, and thanks in advance for any help!

gm = *new gameManager;

return a.exec();
}

//This function initializes all game variables to starting value
}

}
void Stattracker::getInput()

awayPathA.toWCharArray(awayPath);
if((GetFileAttributes(pathCheckB))==INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES)
{
CreateDirectory(pathCheckB, 0);
}
if((GetFileAttributes(homePath))==INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES)
{
CreateDirectory(homePath, 0);
}
if((GetFileAttributes(awayPath))==INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES)
{
CreateDirectory(awayPath, 0);
}
if(ui->firstName->text()!="First Name" && ui->lastName->text()!="Last Name")
{
gm.homeTeam.roster[0].firstName = ui->firstName->text();
gm.homeTeam.roster[0].lastName = ui->lastName->text();
curFileA = homePathA + "\\" + gm.homeTeam.roster[0].lastName + "_" + gm.homeTeam.roster[0].firstName + ".xls";
curFileA.toWCharArray(curFile);
if((GetFileAttributes(curFile))==INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES)
{
}
}
}
void Stattracker::startGame()
{
initializeVars();
getInput();
}
Let me know if I should include any of the other files (stattracker.cpp, stattracker.h, or varstruct.h)

Find libxl.dll and place it in the same directory as you .exe
