ResourceManager.GetString (String)

Returns the value of the specified resource. The resource that is returned is localized for the culture determined by the current cultural settings of the current Thread (this is accomplished via the culture's CurrentUICulture property). If the resource has not been localized for that culture, the resource that is returned is localized for a "best match" (this is accomplished via the Parent property). Otherwise, a a null reference (in Visual Basic Nothing) reference is returned.
