Hi,
I keep getting the Error Cannnot convert type 'object' to 'System.Drawing.Image' on the line

element.Image = global::TelerikEditor.Properties.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(currCountry)

How would I change this?

private void LoadFlags( Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadDropDownList myDLL, Array Cntrys)
{
    myDLL.Items.Clear();
    foreach (string currCountry in Cntrys)
    {
        RadListDataItem element = new RadListDataItem();            
        element.Text = currCountry;
        element.Image = global::TelerikEditor.Properties.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(currCountry);
        element.TextImageRelation = System.Windows.Forms.TextImageRelation.ImageBeforeText;
        myDLL.Items.Add(element);
    }
}

Sorry to bother, I just figured out the correct way which is:

element.Image = (Image)global::TelerikEditor.Properties.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(currCountry.ToLower());
