Unable to Load Theme from my DLL

[Steve Austin]

Hi all

I am evaluating Telerik wincontrols and have this problem...

I have an embedded theme (MyTheme.xml) resource in my own Class Library (MyDll.dll),
The "MyTheme.xml" is set as an embedded resource and I refrence it in my main program.

I try to load the resource from my main VB program (MyProgram) but I cannot get the theme to load.

I am able to load a LOCAL theme resource from inside my main program (MyProgram) using the following

"ThemeResolutionService.RegisterThemeFromStorage(storageType.Resource,

"MyProgram.MyTheme.xml")"

 

 

But when I try to get the theme from my DLL this does NOT work ?
"ThemeResolutionService.RegisterThemeFromStorage(storageType.Resource, "MyDll.MyTheme.xml")"


I have exhausted all the examples on the help & support website and I ned help with this

If you know the answer please reply !.

Hi Martin, thanks for your reply

As I said,  "I have exhausted all the examples on the help & support website" (and the videos)
I have read the KB Article many times and followed on to the other KB Article that explains How to make a theme component BUT, the "Skindemo.zip" is written in C# which i cannot use, I need example in VB.net.
I also do not completly understand the KB Article, I am having a real hard time trying to get this simple thing to work.
(I'm starting to think that it doesnt work)

Can you supply a VB example that works without refering to an existing example or KB Article ?.

Please help if you know how :-)

Ps: I tried to attach an example.zip but site wont allow zip's
