Can't find assembly after deployment

Hi
I have set up a small Win forms application that brings up Stimulsoft designer. When I deploy to a machine where Stimulsoft is not installed, I get an error on one of the assemblies: Stimulsoft.Report.Design.
This dll is included in the project. It is also copied local and is available in the same folder as my application.
My questions are: Why does it not find it? And how do I create one exe file with the assemblies included so that I don't need to copy your dlls.
I'll send the project to your support email. Any help would be appreciated.

(The reports created with this application are consumed in a Silverlight viewer.)

Please, check if you copied assemblies with right version.
It's impossible to add assemblies to one exe file.
Thank you.

I did not get a ticket number. I am not sure, but this is the third time I have sent an email to support and not received a ticket number. It seems like you have to manually find my email each time. Not sure what is going on
Regarding the assembly versions: I have set copy local to true in VS, built to release. I dont see how the dll's can then be the wrong version?

Please see the image below for the error message I get when I deploy the application to a computer that never have had Stimulsoft installed.
It looks like a custom error message from Stimulsoft and not the standard missing assembly message. (?)

Hello,
We couldn't reproduce this bug.
Please try to make the following steps:
1. Uninstall SR.
2. Check GAC and if need remove Stimulsoft Assemblies from GAC.
3. Install your version.
4. Update references in your projects.
Thank you.

I am wondering if I have misunderstood how to deply the application. Did you take the bin/release folder as it is in my zip file, copy it to a computer that does not have Stimulsoft installed and tried to run the application? If so, did you not get the error message shown in the image above? I have deployed the application to two different machines and I got the error message on both.
