the example you mentioned doesn't go into specifics about how to serialize the object into a flat delimited string. &nbsp;most of the example i saw always serialize to a binary format, i.e. data.dat. &nbsp;thanks.

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
