Topic: FileLoadException

System.IO.FileLoadException
A FileLoadException exception is thrown when a managed assembly is found but cannot be loaded.

Could not load file or assembly 'D:\\ObjectARX 2012\\inc\\AcDbMgd.dll' or one of its dependencies. The given assembly name or codebase was invalid. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131047)

Any Ideas.
Perhaps I'm too full of Christmas cheer to make sense of this

Oleg,
Thanks for the reply. I think it may be a bit more complicated than I'd hoped.
I'll put it down untill a rainy day.
