How can I embed an arbitrary file as a resource in C# project in D2005?

I can add the files to the project but the compiler does not know what to do 
with them.  I suppose it has something to do with the ContainerID attribute 
of the files in the project file list.  I know if I add a bitmap file to the 
project, it sets the ContainerID to "Bmp", likewise .resx files get a 
"ResXCompiler" ContainerID.  Is there a way I can add my own custom 
ContainerIDs?

Thanks
