I added some resources in my codedom project but I have no Idea how to access the resources? the "My" Keyword is not available and it doesn't work:
My.Resources.blabla.ToString
How can I access my resources without the using of "My" keyword?
i have added 3 .png files [done.png, failed.png, busy.png] to my project & changed them to "embedded resource" [from this wht i understand is that they will be integrated within the exe hence eliminating the dependency on the actual location it is stored]
i have 1 picturebox on my form whose image i have to change as per the output of something else
this is wht my code looks like :
If text1.text = "Done" then
picturebox1.image = my.resources.done.png
end if

but it gives me error during run time.. am i using the right code ? or is there an alternate method for this ?
I am wanting to use a vnc installer as an embedded resource, and if the computer running the program does not have vnc installed then typing in a password will install vnc. I have tried everything I can think of and running the process from my computer works, however when ran on a different computer i get the error "File not Found". I am sure I am not calling the embedded resource correctly. I am using Process.Start(" ightvnc.exe /S")
View 24 RepliesI'm having some trouble trying to inherit a control that uses an embedded resource. The trouble is - this control uses me.GetType() instead of GetType(ControlName). Now when I try to use the derived control, it looks for the resources in the derived control's assembly, instead of the base control assembly, and obviously - doesn't find them.

View 1 RepliesI'm writing a console application in Visual Basic 2008 Express. I added several text files to my project as resources. Specifically... I went to my project's "Properties" page and selected the "Resources" tab. I clicked the "Add Resource" dropdown and chose "Add New Text File". I entered some simple text and saved the file as "Welcome.txt". I built the entire solution.n my code, I use console.writeline(My.Resources.Welcome) to display the text
View 1 RepliesI've copied the files albanyc.ttf and MTCORSVA.TTF into 'Resources' and set the 'Build Action' for both to 'Resource'. A label is set to one or other of these fonts dependent upon what is being displayed. This works fine on this PC but when I copy the program to my laptop it seems to me that neither font is used and the same 'other font' is used in stead of either of the ones I want to use. I tried setting the build action to 'Embedded Resource' but that made no difference and I got an error message when I tried 'Compile' (I kinda expected that, but thought it worth a try). Both CP and laptop have the same OS, Win.7 64bit, the only difference is that the PC has Pro. and the laptop Home P.
View 7 RepliesI'm having trouble with reading a file from embedded resources.
I'm starting to learn about developing applications for eBay. You can pass queries to eBay in XML format, and receive replies back in the same format.
I have some examples of code to do this. Here's how the sample code loads an xml file, containing the query.
'Get XML Document from Embedded Resources
Dim xmlDoc As New XmlDocument()
Dim current_assembly As Assembly
[Code]....
I can't see any difference between the sample and my attempt.
The Assembly Name and Root Namespace in my project are both set to "Sample," just as in the original.
I've tried things like changing the filename and the namespace, but I still can't get it to work.
If I took a COM object (specifically Excel 2003 workbook) and made it an embedded resource of my executable, would that improve the notoriously slow .NET-COM interop at all?
View 1 Repliesthe story goes something like this:i have embedded resource file, a vbs script.i have an error when i use writeallbytes and it says dimensional error cannot be converted to bytes something like that so i decided to make a module instead of writeallbytes,what my program does is it writes the content of the script to textbox and after that this data will be written in a script and will be save on drive C: as .vbs.that is perfectly working on my codes

i just want to know, what is much better to do for data access? include the database to my solution (tools>connect to database), or just hardcode everything?
View 1 RepliesI am writing a very simple program that connects to a accdb file (Microsoft Access 2007 file) and returns some results in a datagridview. Everything is fine. Now because we have to deploy this program in many computers i publish it so everyone we want can install it and have updates. What i wanted to do is to make the database file part of the program which i did it by adding it to the resources. My problem is that i do not know what connection string to enter in order to access it in my resources.
My previous connectionstring before i deploy it was this
ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:l.accdb;Persist Security Info=True
What should i change in the data source in order to access the same file in my resources?
I'm trying to write a Windows Application with VB 2008 that needs to use some simple Access DB (via OleDB connections). I did it and it works fine, but what I want to do is to have the databases not accessible to the users... I want the databases to travel togheter with the application, or to be embedded, encapsulated in it, but don't want that the user can open and read the .mdb files... I suppose that the way to do what I need is to set the "Build Action" property of the mdb files in the VB project to "Compile" or to "Embedded Resources" (currently it is set to "Content"), but when I try to do it, the application cannot finde the mdb file and cannot connect the database... obviously...I suppose I need to modify the connection strings, but I don't know how to do it!

I have inherited a large project written in a mixture of C# and VB.Net
The project involves many separate assemblies.
There are hundreds (or thousands) of resources (png files) that have been inserted into the project using the VB My.Resources functionality that I would like to access from some C# code, in a different assembly.
Microsoft has a KB article about this. It includes some sample code, but I can't get it to work (and I can't quite follow the code).
// Gets a reference to the same assembly that
// contains the type that is creating the ResourceManager.
System.Reflection.Assembly myAssembly;

I added my resources to one my class Libraries and now I'm trying to figure out what the best way of accessing the resources are from my markup.

Or <%=Resources.MyApp.Name %> for plain text
