"exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation." error

Mateen Khan asked:

I have a winforms application which was working fine. Recently i formatted my system and reinstalled VS 2008. From that time the application has stopped running.
When i run it through VS it gives error

"exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation."

I went on to debug and found that in the this exception comes when from c# code using reflection the code tries to invoke a function from an assembly which is written in c++.
