Post subject:  Should PDFSharp DLLs be in SysWOW64 folder?

Developed on x86. Deployed to a 64-bit server. Had the PDFSharp DLLs along side my app (under c:|Program Files\etc\etc. Do they need to be in SysWOW64 on that server?

Getting a "MyApp has stopped working.." on the load.

Any/all help is appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

That's what I would also do.
Do you compile for "Any CPU" or for "x86"? The latter forces the program to run in 32 bit mode, the former will lead to the program running in 64 bit mode.
Obviously you can test both settings.

Do you get any details along with the error message?

x86.

I need to add better catch blocks to get more info and/or write errors to the event log.

I guess a related question is... do earllier (32-bit, framework 2.0) versions of .Net dlls need to go into the SysWOW64 folder? I will try it both ways.
