Your "HelloWorld" project uses ObjectARX managed (.NET) API, which is not
installed in GAC. You do no set reference to AutoCAD.Interop dll, which is
for Acad automation.

You need to set reference in your ObjectARX .NET API project to
"Drive:\Acad2005[2006]_installation_folder\acdbmgd.dll" and
"Drive:\Acad2005[2006]_installation_folder\acmgd.dll".

By the way, you'd better to post ObjectARX managed API related message to
"autodesk.autocad.customization.dotnet" group, instead of in VBA group
