Hello, Nathan,  

Following the provided information, I was unable to reproduce the issue you are facing. Please refer to the following screenshot:

I have the following assemblies added to the project and it runs as expected:

• Telerik.WinControls
• Telerik.WinControls.RadSpreadsheet
• Telerik.WinControls.UI
• Telerik.Windows.Documents.Spreadsheet
• TelerikCommon

You can find attached my sample project for your reference. Am I missing something? Do I need to perform any changes in order to replicate the problem you are facing?

I am looking forward to your reply.

Interesting your project works fine for me.  I had to upgrade your project to 2018.2.621.  I run Telerik in VS 2013.  I don't have the Excel Ribbon in my other App.  I removed it from your app and it still works.  I also have plenty of other libraries.  Here is all the libraries I have included in my form.  Perhaps there is some conflict.  I look forward to your reply.

All my code & attached screenshots of the reference folder.  FYI Most is commented out.

I added your form to my Project and it no longer works.

I get the same build error
