Hi, this can be done with the ResourceManager Class. There are tons of
examples available in Internet and
also some very good in the MSDN Library...

Hello,

I included some xml files to my project as resource...How can I load
them at
run time??

In Project-Explorer click on the xml file and set (under properties)
Buildaction="Embedded ressource".
So the file will be embedded in the assembly.
The call at runtime is i.e. :
Assembly thisExe = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(*);
Stream file=
thisExe.GetManifestResourceStr*eam("myAssemblyName .myXmlFile.xml");
textBoxXML.AppendText(new StreamReader(file).ReadToEnd()*);
file.Close();

In some cases the StreamReader.Read should be with Encoding.Default.

Hello perspolis,

if I want to load it from a dll resource, do I have to act this way??

I think, you mean a managed DLL.
Yes you can i.e. with Assembly.LoadFrom() etc.

With ASP.NET you have to keep in mind some assembly
locking effects which you can solve with SetShadowCopyPath.
