When you store a file in a resource file. You just store a really big byte array that represents the content of your file. So when you call Me.Resources.MyHelpFile it will return a byte().

You can turn this byte() back in a file like this:

        Dim binWriter = New IO.BinaryWriter(IO.File.Create("help.chm"))
        binWriter.Write(My.Resources.MyHelpDocument)
        binWriter.Close()

        Process.Start("help.chm")

Hope that helps!
