Right now i have a line of code, in vb, that calls a text file, like this:

Dim fileReader As String
    fileReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText("data5.txt")

data5.txt is a resource in my application, however the application doesn't run because it can't find data5.txt. I'm pretty sure there is another code for finding a .txt file in the resource that i'm overlooking, but i can't seem to figure it out. So does anyone know of a simple fix for this? or maybe another whole new line of code? Thanks in advance!
