This wasn't immediately obvious to me and I did look through the docs a bit without any luck.  I had a group of images all embedded in the same .resx file and I wanted to reference them programatically at runtime.  Typically if you have a single file embedded in your project, you can just use the GetManifestResourceStream method off the executing assembly and get a stream reference to the file.  But that doesn't work if you have multiple resources in the same resource file, you can only get a handle to the main .resx file.  The trick is to use the ResourceManager class to reference the .resx file and then you can get access to all the objects.  So something like this works:

System.Resources.ResourceManager resourceManager = new System.Resources.ResourceManager("MyApplication.Images", GetType().Assembly);
Image myImage = (Image)resourceManager.GetObject(imageName);
