I am working on a Access file in my work PC, now bring back to my home to
continue working on that.
However, when I tried to open and run it, it said
"Cannot find project or library"
eg. Pos function

One error I noticed was the Date function does not recognised in my home PC,
I know there is a way to look at what my Access .mdb file is linking to but
I forgot how to look at that.
Any idea?
 
Your References collection is probably messed up.

References problems can be caused by differences in either the location or
file version of certain files between the machine where the application was
developed, and where it's being run (or the file missing completely from the
target machine). Such differences are common when new software is installed.

On the machine(s) where it's not working, open any code module (or open the
Debug Window, using Ctrl-G, provided you haven't selected the "keep debug
window on top" option). Select Tools | References from the menu bar. Examine
all of the selected references.

If any of the selected references have "MISSING:" in front of them, unselect
them, and back out of the dialog. If you really need the reference(s) you
just unselected (you can tell by doing a Compile All Modules), go back in
and reselect them.

If none have "MISSING:", select an additional reference at random, back out
of the dialog, then go back in and unselect the reference you just added. If
that doesn't solve the problem, try to unselect as many of the selected
references as you can (Access may not let you unselect them all), back out
of the dialog, then go back in and reselect the references you just
unselected. (NOTE: write down what the references are before you delete
them, because they'll be in a different order when you go back in)

Incidentally, the problem is almost never with the library in which the Date
function resides (the VBA library). The problem is that the VBA library is
the last one checked (thus allowing you to override functions in that
library), and if any of the other libraries are missing, it'll look as
though the VBA library is too.
