Serialization...I think...

Hello,

I thought I saw a VB.NET sample of this once. In fact, I have both the 101 VB and C# samples, but for some reason it does not seem like what I want.

What do I want you ask? Well..I have a program in which I want to save my settings such as the last directory I was in, the last file I had selected (and displayed in a label), etc..etc... I think I have seen other programs use INI files for this, but is Serialization the way to go or another way?

Are there any simplistic samples?

Thanks!

If all that info is stored in a single object's properties, then you could. Or go the somewhat conventional, somewhat modern approach and save it to an XML file instead of INI. :D
