  11 <p> The  <a href="../System.Resources/System.Resources.html">System.Resources</a> namespace provides classes and interfaces that allow developers to create, store, and manage various culture-specific resources used in an application. One of the most important classes of the  <a href="../System.Resources/System.Resources.html">System.Resources</a> namespace is the  <a href="../System.Resources/types/ResourceManager.html">ResourceManager</a> class.</p>
  12 <p> The  <a href="../System.Resources/types/ResourceManager.html">ResourceManager</a> class allows the user to access and control resources stored in the main assembly or in resource satellite assemblies. Use the  <a href="#GetObject">ResourceManager.GetObject</a> and  <a href="#GetString">ResourceManager.GetString</a> methods to retrieve culture-specific objects and strings.</p>
