Saving Classes Past Close

[liljoedaprince]

Ihave created several classes and i wanted to know who to store the data enclosed in the classs. For Example

Public Class Session
       Public total_money As Integer
End Class


    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim Session1 As New Session
        Session1.total_money = 8
    End Sub

If i wanted to store that value past the close of the application, how would I? I already know I cant use the settings class. And what if i have multiple new classes. Help! Thanks

You'll either save the information to a file or a database.
If saving to a file, the easiest way is to use serialization.

Serialization is very easy because it only takes a few lines of code to save all the values
from the class.

do u think u can give me a quick rundown of what serialization is and how to use it (code, examples etc) or maybe a website about it?
