Error creating a sharepoint workflow project in VS 2008

Asked by PACCAST-DEV in MOSS-Sharepoint, Visual Studio 2008

I'm following a tutorial on creating a workflow in VS 2008. I have copied the files referenced below to my dev machine, but still get the below error crearting the project:

From tutorial  ( http://www.sharepointblogs.com/andynoon/archive/2008/02/06/sharepoint-2007-workflow-with-visual-studio-2008.aspx)

At this point it depends on whether you are working on a MOSS2007 server or not as to what you do next. If youre on a MOSS2007 server then simply create a new Sequential Workflow project. If not youll need to grab the SharePoint DLLs from the server, the easiest way of doing this is to take microsoft.sharepoint.* and microsoft.office * from the servers C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\12\ISAPI directory and create and copy to the same path on your development machine. You will now have all the references you need to create a workflow project, go ahead and simply create a new Sequential Workflow project.

You will be asked to specify both the name of the workflow to display to users and also the initial library you want to use during development (for debugging the workflow). Note that in Visual Studio 2005 you do not get this prompt and need to manually set this up.

Error msg:
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Sharepoint, Version 12.0.0.0... or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Can anyone help?
thanks,
