you might be better off saving them to the registry.
try using something like the following.

SaveSetting App.Title, "SavedData", "Text1.Text", Text1.Text
Text1.Text = GetSetting(App.Title, "SavedData", "Text1.Text")

watch out on the first time it is run, though, because you could get a bad error. In order to prevent that from happening, put this line before every line with GetSetting:

On Error Resume Next

This is pretty useful. If you want more help, create a new project with the vb application wizard and look at what happens when it loads and unloads. It saves the position of the forms by saving the values to the registry.

good luck,
