Subject: [dba-VB] Reading and Writing to XML file (VB.Net 2005)

So it's been a while since I've done any programming in .net and this step
is something I've never done in .net, I've done it in Access and VB in the
past and involved writing classes, but am wondering how it's approached in
.net  (also for beginner vb.net you can point me to site you prefer if you
like)

my task.

I have a simple .net app, it queries a database and populates a DataGridView
control.  I purpose of this app is that it reads the time information from
our timeclock server so that users can easily see when their lunch or clock
out time for the day are since they have a flexibility of +/- 10min for
clocking in during the morning and at lunch.

It works well, but some users have asked for a tolerance to allow the app to
remind them as early as 10 minutes to clock out or as late as 1 min before
they absolutely need to clock out.  A settings form was then developed and
now I'm scracthing my head as I think I should store these settings into an
xml file, but thought that since I'm in .net that writing to an xml file
that was added using the add new item in my project should be simpler but
maybe I'm just wrong?
