How to read strings from an mui file

I wanna to read strings from mui files - such as "TTYRES.DLL.mui" file.
Well, when I try to open it with VS, it returned with garbages... and after checking with XN Resource Editor, i can see the strings complied in the mui file...

so there must be a way to read strings from mui file, so my question is: does anyone know how to read strings from mui files with programing? e.g. is there some class or things like this i can work with to get strings in mui file?

[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Unicode, EntryPoint="LoadStringW", ExactSpelling=true)]
            internal static extern int LoadString(
                IntPtr hInstance,
                uint uID,

I have not tried the function I am telling you but this is only way you can accomplish your task ..

      [DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Unicode, EntryPoint="LoadStringW", ExactSpelling=true)]
            internal static extern int LoadString(
                IntPtr hInstance,
                uint uID,
                StringBuilder lpBuffer,
                int nBufferMax);
its old Win32 API Function you can call from C# to read String From resource ..
