BadImageFormatException

[Cronan]

Hi, I have a large number of dependant files, x86 and AnyCpu - a mix of custom and third-party libraries. I get this error trying to run:

Unhandled Exception: System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'file:///c:\ExcelDna.dll' or 
one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrec

Fuslogvw isn't very helpful:

ExcelDna.dll is the assembly that contains my attributed functions

[Cronan]

Fixed by adding x86 platform - some of my dependencies are x86 COM dlls.

Re-opening this so that I can fix it for everyone with new build platform options
