Adding mates to sprockets

Hello,

I'm used to work with Inventor. Since a while i am using SolidWorks.
Now i have a problem with mating sprockets. I've drawn two sprockets. My intension is to turn one sprocket, while SolidWorks turns the other sprocket in the right direction.

How do i do that?
 
In the mate dialogue, select advanced mates and there you find Gear and Rack Pinion mates. I believe this will meet your needs.
