I think that if you add header files in your

ADD_LIBRARY
and
ADD_EXECUTABLE
command the header will show up in Visual Studio

aka instead of

ADD_LIBRARY(MyLib file1.c file2.c)
put
ADD_LIBRARY(MyLib file1.c file2.c file1.h file2.h)

the same is true for other kind of header files like .hh .hxx and the like.
they won't be "compiled" but added to you "browsable files".

you may have a look at
SOURCE_GROUP macro which may be useful too.

I don't know for that kind of file I do not use it currently.
