You should add a path to the other project. It's preferred to use the macros like $(SolutionDir) to refer to other projects in the solution.

In the properties for the project, add the location of the header files to the

C/C++ | General | Additional Include Directories

item.

To get the library project linked in, add a reference to it in the:

Common Properties | Framework and References

item.

I wish that adding the project reference would get the IDE to automatically add the refered-to project directory to the include file path, but it doesn't.
