Create an environment variable on each developer machine: 
BOOSTDIR="c:\dev\boost\...". Then reference this from

"Common Properties | C/C++ | General | Additional Include Directories"
by adding $(BOOSTDIR)

and

"Common Properties | Linker | General | Additional Library Dependencies" 
by adding $(BOOSTDIR)\lib.

Don't forget to specify these for both debug and release configurations.

If you have a shared property sheet you can add the above there and have 
these settings applied to all projects that use the propertysheet.
