Icon resources from name

[Echilon]

I'm trying to access image resources in my application, but I can't the resources from the application, I just end up with null. I've added the resources in the properties section in visual studio 2008, and the code I'm using is

private ResourceManager res = new ResourceManager("MyNameSpace.Properties.Resources", System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly());
Image myImage = (Image)res.GetObject("myImage.png");

But myImage is always null. I know I could use MyNameSpace.Properties.Resources.myImage.png, but I need to get the resource from a string.

My guess is you have it set as an embedded resource. In that case, you need to use the manifeststream of the assembly.
