Opening pdf files from Resources

Question

Hello, I would like to give the user of the program I have written, the option to open certain pdf files.

This code below opens the pdf file from the \Debug.

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("help.pdf");

This is not what I want. I added the pdf file to the Resources. How do I call up a pdf from the Resources?
