title: Getting a string dynamically from strings resources
body: <p>I am working on a localised C#.NET application and we are using a <code>strings.resx</code> file to translate hardcoded strings in the application. I use the following code to extract them:</p>
  
  <pre><code>using MyNamespace.Resources
  
  ...
  
  string someString = strings.someString;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But, now I want to be able to define the name of the string in the call, something like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>string someString = GetString("someString");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have been toying a little with the <code>ResourceManager</code>, but i can't find a way to direct it to my <code>strings.resx</code> file.</p>
  
  <p>How do I do that?</p>
