GetManifestResourceStream returns NULL

Question

This is a C# .NET 4.0 application:

I\'m embedding a text file as a resource and then trying to display it in a dialog box:

    var assembly = Assembl         


        

Answer 1

The embedded file's "Build Action" property should be set as "Embedded Resource" to run the line, which is given below, properly:

Stream stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(resourceName)

Right click on the file, click the property and then set "Build Action" property as "Embedded Resource":
