Accessing project resource images with a dynamic names.

Let me start off by saying, there are other better ways of accessing this data from the resource file than as listed below. With time and resources available I did this.

Here are my requirements,

1. Need to access images from project resources to bind to controls.

2. The names are dynamic and are DB driven.

So I added all the images I need to the project resource and added all the image names in the DB.

Here is how I was able to access the images from resources by passing in an image name.

I opened the Resources.Designer.cs and added this method.

Now you can access all your images with this line.

Now anywhere in my windows project I can use



to access resource images.

Happy code writing!
