Solution 1

When a project written in different language is referenced from another project, the referenced project has to be rebuilt for the types and the intellisense to show for that project in the referencing project. So, rebuild the myproj3, either from build menu or by right clicking on myproj3 in solution explorer, selecting the rebuild menu option, and then try for intellisense in the myproj1

In .NET once the compilation is done the DLL file is generated in MSIL. Hence, after building the projects it is available from other projects. I created a solution with MyProj1, MyProj2 and MyProj3 as stated by you and tested. The procedure works. Rebuild your solution and try. If MyProj3 is not already set as ClassLibrary project, which is required for using it from other projects, please set it as ClassLibrary project right clicking on the project and selecting properties menu option.
