Static lib and projects on USB drive

[Joekoder345]

I code a lot of related c++ console applications that could use a static library. I use several different desktops running visual studio express 2012. Since I jump from desktop to desktop, I keep the project folders for each console application on a USB stick. I can't seem to figure out how to also keep the static library on the USB stick and have the console applications on the stick find the library. I would also like to avoid copying the library to each application's project folder. Anybody have thoughts on this?

I prefer to link the library code right into the executable so I don't need additional support libraries. Its called static linking.
