I am trying to load the form of a published application. I am getting the below error message:

Could not load type 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.ShapeContainer' from assembly 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Vs, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'.

searched in google, found some articles but those are not resolved my problem.

Can you help on this ?

Thanks
