Form's .resx file is an embedded resource. This means you can access it as shown below:
Assembly assembly = Assembly.GetEntryAssembly();
Stream stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(
"WindowsApplication1.Form1.resx");Alexandre Kojevnikov MCAD charter member Leuven, Belgium

I probably misunderstood your question. You will need:

I used the follwing code: Assembly assembly = Assembly.GetEntryAssembly(); Stream stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("WindowsApplication7.Form1.resx"); ResourceReader a = new ResourceReader(stream); IDictionaryEnumerator en = a.GetEnumerator(); en.MoveNext(); MessageBox.Show(en.Key.ToString()); MessageBox.Show(en.Value.ToString()); a.Close(); But I get an exception stating that: An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentNullException' occurred in mscorlib.dll Additional information: Value cannot be null.

Replace
WindowsApplication7.Form1.resxwithWindowsApplication7.Form1.resources. This should work. Alexandre Kojevnikov MCAD charter member Leuven, Belgium -
