dll

If my project name is ABC and the DLL currently outputs as ABC.DLL, how can I make my DLL be outputted as say CBA.DLL and so that when the .LIB is compiled linked against, it is not looking for ABC.DLL, but CBA.DLL. I tried changing the name under Linker > General > Output File but when I linked to the .lib in my other application, it was still looking for ABC.DLL and CBA.DLL.
