How do I reference a DLL in a VC++ project
Read through and you will get there. It is done using visual studio compiler settings. You can do it via programming as well. Check this From SO Shortcut via programming is to use the following

pragma comment (lib, "test.lib")

The library test.lib should be accessible to your program.

And finally look here if you want to add third party libraries to your project.

pragma comment (lib, "lib_name.lib")

That should do the trick.

There is probably some setting in the project properties too, but I can't check that right now.
