Problem loading Callout Assembly dll

I created a callout assembly class and dll using VB 2003 to generate a random
number and assign it to service activity. I created the config file and
published it the the assembly directory. Restarted IIS and when I go to
create a service activity I get the following error:

Could not load type MyCallOuts.PreCreateServiceActivity from assembly
CalloutAssembly, Version=1.0.2291.16635, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null.

This is the config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<callout.config version="2.0" xmlns="
http://schemas.microsoft.com/crm/2006/callout/">
<callout entity="serviceappointment" event="PreCreate">
<subscription assembly="CalloutAssembly.dll"
class="MyCallOuts.PreCreateServiceActivity">
</subscription>
</callout>
</callout.config>

The namespace is MyCallOuts and the class is PreCreateServiceActivity.

Can anyone help?!? Thanks in advance.

You already clearly mentioned your namespace and classnames, but just to be
sure. Do you have all the capitalizations correct? I had exactly the same
problem and it turned out that my dll was called MyCallOut.dll (capital O)
and the callout.config said "MyCallout" and that's why it failed.

HTH,

I was able to resolve the issue. VB Studio was wrapping it in another
namespace. I had to set root namespace to MyCallOuts in properties and
removed the namespace statements from the code.
