add it as a reference to your project. Although if you started out making a winforms project then your issues may be different. If this is on a users computer trying to run your app, then install framework 2.0 on their machine. If neither of those works, visit google.com and type in your error and figure out which situation is closest to yours. Trial and error.

I cannot resolve this issue. My project forms does not look like a form. google search is suggesting I require systems.forms.resources, however I cannot find it.

If its not a winforms project is it a WPF application? More information would be helpful. Just typing an error in doesn't help, without knowing what you have and what you are trying to do. Are you just trying to compile this? Are you using Visual studio? how are you getting the error? I do not see anything that can help us help you.

I had to re-install VS 2008 and the SDKs to resolve all my issues. Also this link helps with other errors I encountered
