Hello
I have an Access app i made using Access 2013
When i copied the file on a different computer and when i ran the app, an error message popped that says
Your database or project Micorsoft access contains incomplete or broken reference to the file "System.windows.forms.tlb" version 2.4
Any help please
 
add the reference (on diff pc) in VBA (Tools->References).

Well it must have existed on the other computer?
Look to see what file is for that lib and copy to new computer as arnelgp indicates.
 
Sometimes when you have a different version of the operating system on one computer than on another, their references will be moved to very different folders. Access is limited in updating references. Was that reference perhaps not in the same folder as most of the other references?
 
Make sure you have installed .NET framework version 4.0. That should install and register the required file.

Alternatively, check whether you really need that reference. Does your code compile without it?
I've never used that reference in 20+ years working with Access
 
Thank you all for the help
I found the reference at the bottom of the reference list
