Solution 1

If your are using your application in visual studio 2008 then try to remove
the tag targetframework="4.0".

Mostly these type of error(s) occur if your compiling and debugging the projects in different version of dotnet.

Well, this question is SEVEN years old. I think the OP has already found a solution.

We're now supposed to allow solutions to really old posts go through ... unless of course they have just copied someone else's solution as in this case :-)

Ah, okay. I haven't been aware of that.

Don't just repeat other members' solutions. You could have added "It worked for me" as a comment to solution 1
