I strongly suggest you use the import library and not deal with the
mess of assigning the right function pointer for each curl easy
function. Just in case you decide not to, here is an example I have
put together from an unrelated project (Names have been sanitized, of
course ;-) ):

typedef char *(*FNGETSTRING)(int);

void dosomethinguseful()
{
        char *blah;
        FNGETSTRING foo;

        ...

        foo = (FNGETSTRING) GetProcAddress(hDLL /* From LoadLibrary */, "foo");
        blah = foo(1); /* you are calling the GetProcAddress'ed function */
        
        ...
}
