Are these two files part of a big file ?
If yes, then when you create a DVI for the large file, the references will be
correct.
If not, then you need to use the xr package:
In file2 add to the preamble
\usepackage{xr}
\externaldocument{file1}
and you also need to disable the "use temp. directory" in the preferences
dialog.
