Your microsoft office access database or project contains a missing or broken reference to the file "OUTLCTL.DLL" VERSION 1.1

I have recently installed Microsoft Office Access 2007 on my second home computer and restored my existing Database file from my other home computer.   When I do, it comes up with the above error.

Microsoft 365 and Office | Access | For home | Windows

    The error means that the particular DLL is not on the second machine. Since this is an obscure DLL, you can try Code Window > Tools > References and uncheck the reference to this dll, and then use Debug > Compile to see if it still compiles. If yes, you're good to go; if no, you need to review the code that uses this dll. If it is needed, you need to install the app that installs this dll.
