VC++ Question - LINK : fatal error LNK1104

The error during build in VC++:
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "/blah/blah/blah.lib"

the issue:
I've inherited this cource code from another company and the company
had their dir. stucture as /blah/blah/blah.lib but I need to have my
build point to /yeah/yeah/yeah.lib

how can I have it point to the other dir stucture? Where can I change
this? I've checked the project dsw, dsp and mak files. Please help!

Thanks!!

Linking is not defined by the C++ standard, and as such questions
concerning it are generally considered off-topic in comp.lang.c++. Your
question is about using a particular linker, which makes it even more
off-topic. Please be more considerate in the future and avoid posting
off-topic messages. These will help:
