Add your file to the project, and set the Build action to "Embed as resource," and optionally set the Resource ID. At runtime, you can do: var destPath = Path.Combine ( System.Environment.GetFolderPath(System.Environment.SpecialFolder.Personal), "items.db3"); using (System.IO.Stream source = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream("resource name")) using (var dest = System.IO.File.Create (destPath)) { source.CopyTo (dest); } Note, however, that if the resource will be sizable, it'll likely take a noticeable amount of time. Don't do this in the UI thread. :-) - Jon _______________________________________________ Monodroid mailing list Monodroid@lists.ximian.com UNSUBSCRIBE INFORMATION: http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monodroid
