c# - Using Precompiled .NET Assembly DLL in Mono?

Question

We're currently testing Mono to see if our .NET DLLs will work for customers on Linux. Our DLLs provide components for Windows Forms. I placed the DLLs in the Debug directory, added the references, and created a class deriving from a Windows Form. The class had run fine standalone, but after I added the DLL references and created one of our components (the intellisense worked fine), it compiles but will not run:

** (/home/aldwin/testMonoWF/testMonoWF/bin/Debug/testMonoWF.exe:26905): WARNING **: Could not load file or assembly 'OUR.ASSEMBLY, Version=1.0.0.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=ATOKEN' or one of its dependencies.

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'OUR.ASSEMBLY, Version=1.0.0.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=ATOKEN' or one of its dependencies.
File name: 'OUR.ASSEMBLY, Version=1.0.0.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=ATOKEN'

I looked at the properties of the assembly, and it is that version with that public key.

Is there a way for me to use these DLLs? What am I doing wrong?

EDIT:

According to MoMA, other than some [MonoTodo]s that have no bearing on the situation, there is one problem in three of the DLLs:

Calling Method | P/Invoke Method | P/Invoke Library
void OnHandleCreated (EventArgs) | int GoText/ComboBoxControl.SetWindowTheme (IntPtr, string, string) | uxtheme.dll

However, I opened one of our sample projects created with VS2008, pointed the reference to the DLL at the right place, and it worked fine. But I could not get the reference to work in a new project. Am I doing something wrong?

EDIT 2: To clarify, we don't want to recreate an existing windows application - we are simulating a customer creating a new application with our dll. I was just testing that to see if it was a dll problem. Since the VS-made application was able to find the dll and run successfully, it would seem it's not a dll problem. The new application is not calling anything the VS-created application doesn't.

I'd test the DLL with MOMA (Mono Migration Analyzer) to see if it's using unsupported API's.
