i have add .zip file to my resource how can i access that zip file ?
Add your resource to the project in the project properties...(which you did)
Then it's simple...
var zipFile = MyNamespace.Properties.Resources.My_Zip_File;
Visual Studio Community 2015 answer:
The file is now accessible programatically. The path and file is part of the assembly when debugging and when the progam is installed as a final publish. It compares favorably against using absolute path. Example C# header:
using System.IO;
using System.Reflection;
Example C# code:
String strAppPath = Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Diagnostics.Process.GetCurrentProcess().MainModule.FileName);
String strFilePath = Path.Combine(strAppPath, "Resources");
String strFullFilename = Path.Combine(strFilePath, "My_Zip_File.zip");
` For example, we can read the file as Stream and we can also open the file using strFullFileName.
