CLR compile error SerializedDataWithMetadata

HI,

I'm trying to compile a simple SQL CLR and have a compile error.

error CS0117: 'Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.Format' does not contain a definition for 'SerializedDataWithMetadata'

The problem is with the statement Format.SerializedDataWithMetadata. I have a feeling it's something to do with using the correct scope.
