I have an object "retval" of type "MyCompany.Department.MyCrystalRpt"
(from the watch window:)
retval.GetType().ToString()    "MyCompany.Department.MyCrystalRpt"    String

This report is compiled to be part of a class library, and even has it's
resources compiled in correctly:
(from the watch window:)
retval.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceNames    {Length=2}    String()
(0)    "MyCompany.Department.MyCrystalRpt.resources"    String
(1)    "MyCompany.Department.MyCrystalRpt.rpt"    String

According to the documentation, "If the full name of type is
"MyNameSpace.MyClasses" and name is "Net", GetManifestResourceStream will
search for a resource named MyNameSpace.Net.", so I'd expect this:
(from the watch window:)
retval.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream( retval.GetType(),
"MyCrystalRpt.rpt")
To return a System.IO.Stream; however it return Nothing/null.

Now, I realise that there are other ways to get the manifest resource stream
, for instance:
retval.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(
"MyCompany.Department.MycrystalReport.rpt") does return a System.IO.Stream;
howwever, this issue is code identified in a third party component vendors
code (thanks to a certain amount of IL debugging), and I don't believe the
fault is with them, but instead within the 1.1 Framework?
Or am I being really stupid and mis-interpreting the documentation?
