Returns

The localized string for the Prompt property if the ResourceType property has been specified and if the Prompt property represents a resource key; otherwise, the non-localized value of the Prompt property.

Exceptions

Both the ResourceType property and Prompt properties were set, but a public static property with a name matching the Prompt value couldn't be found on the ResourceType.
