Use resource file with Emails

[tg2003]

Hi,

I'm currently using the following to use a jpg inside a mail that I send by VB.NET (2008):

Dim logo As New LinkedResource(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "\myfile.jpg")

I want not to let the users to change this jpg file contents, so I want to use a resource file instead.
I know how I can put this jpg inside my resource file - but how can I point to it? The statement above requests for a string pathname, but I can't supply it when I use

My.Resources.myfile

Thanks!

The only thing I can suggest is save the resource as a file then delete that file once you are finished. To make sure it is a folder they have access to I would use their MyDocuments folder, Use a really strange name, and check first before saving just on the off chance the file already exists. To save the file:

My.Resources.myfile.Save(PathAndFileName)

-I hate Microsoft!
-Forever and always forward.
-My kingdom for a edit button!
