Get Resources with string

Salih Teamsah

Hi,

I have a lot of txt files in Resources folder. One of them is corner.txt. I can access this file via this code snippet:

Properties.Resources.corner

I keep file names in string variables. For example:

string fileName = "corner.txt";

I want to access this file via:

Properties.Resources.fileName

Is this possible? How can I access?

Accepted answer
The nearest you can get is this:

string fileName = "corner.txt";
string temp = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(fileName);
string s = Properties.Resources.ResourceManager.GetString(temp);
