[OnDeserialized] causes System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException

Question

In VS 2008 SP1, with a Word app-level add-in, if I put [OnDeserialized] on a method, I get the below error when Word starts from F5.

If I instead implement the IDeserializationCallback, there is no such problem.

Hello Jason,

Welcome to MSDN forums!

I've built a blank solution under Visual Studio 2008 SP1 for Word 2007, and add the same attribute which you mentioned, but the error doens't occurred, so, would you please show us your code structure? It looks like you've got Ribbon Object involved. And have you perform something special?

Looking forward to your feedback.

Thanks.
