Remote Desktop Connection Manager “RDCMan manages multiple remote desktop connections. It is useful for managing server labs or large server farms where you need regular access to each machine such as automated checkin systems and data centers. It is similar to the built-in MMC Remote Desktops snap-in, but more flexible.”

* In Visual Studio file properties set Build Action as Embedded Resource And then you can read a file using this code private static string ReadResourceFile( string defaultNamespace, string fileName) { var resource = string .Format(" {0}.{1} ", defaultNamespace, fileName); using (var stream = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream(resource)) { using (var sr = new StreamReader(stream)) { return sr.ReadToEnd(); } } }

* Run xsd Visual Studio command line utility to generate object from xsd file (from Visual Studio Command Prompt) * Then add the cs file to your project (same place as your xsd file) < xsd : schema xmlns : xsd = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace = "urn:contacts" xmlns : bks = "urn:contacts" > < xsd : element name = "contacts" type = "bks:Contacts" /> < xsd : complexType name = "Contacts" > < xsd : sequence > < xsd : element name = "contact" type = "bks:Contact" minOccurs = "0" maxOccurs = "unbounded" /> </ xsd : sequence > </ xsd : complexType > < xsd : complexType name = "Contact" > < xsd : sequence > < xsd : element name = "firstName" type = "xsd:string" /> < xsd : element name ...
