Winforms interop

[peterz]

Is it possible to host the ChartFx WPF control in a Winforms application? I tried the very simplest Winforms app and got a run time exception. My environment is XP Pro and VS 2008. I'm using the Beta 1 ChartFX WPF which I downloaded last week. All this is running on a VMWare virtual machine.The code I used is:public Form1(){InitializeComponent();System.Windows.Forms.Integration.ElementHost elementHost1 = new System.Windows.Forms.Integration.ElementHost();elementHost1.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;elementHost1.Parent = this;ChartFX.WPF.Chart chart = new ChartFX.WPF.Chart();elementHost1.Child = chart;}This builds so I think all my project's references are valid but when I run the app the exception I get is:System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException occurred  Message=" Could not load file or assembly 'ChartFX.WPF, Version=0.8.2894.28859, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=a1878e2052c08dce' or one of its dependencies.

I should have added that when I created my own WPF UserControl from scratch and hosted that in my app, my user control worked fine.
