Help with entity frame work error. Error 0194: All artifacts loaded....

Question

This is a c#/asp.net project. The full error message I get is:Error 0194: All artifacts loaded into the item collection must have the same version. Multiple versions were encountered.

This project was started as a 3.5 and upgraded to 4.0. When I try to test any of the methods I get the error that I posted in the subject line. I am going to include the actual lines that it throws the exception on. If there is anything in people need to see to try to help let me know and I post it as well. Any help will be appreciated, I am having no luck with this.

You have just posted the constructors to your SFBExternalPaymentsEntities class, but you seem to say that you get an exception when you call a method that returns a collection of entities, which makes send with the exception message you are getting. The chances are the problem lies within the method you are calling, or in the code calling it rather than in the constructor code you have posted. Can you post some more relevent code or explain how the code you have posted relates to the exception.
