I see what you're trying to create a standalone application (exe-file). In this case you can not use AutoCAD. NET API (ie acmgd.dll, acdbmgd.dll, accoremgd.dll, etc)

Although you can license the RealDWG SDK to add DWG capability to your own app. Brief explanation here - http://adndevblog.typepad.com/autocad/2012/03/readingwriting-dwg-files-from-a-standalone-application.html.
