Simple and easy way to reference a dll is:

  1. In Solution Explorer, select the project.
  2. On the Project menu, click Add Reference. The Add Reference dialog box opens.
  3. Select the tab indicating the type of component you want to reference. In your case, you will have to select COM tab.

An article on MSDN to include installed libraries.
