Problem could be at your class definition, can we have a look in your class scripts?

in case this is useful:

XmlSerializer.Deserialize Method (XmlReader)

attached is the vb from the schema.

Here is my deserialization method:

        Public Function GetOrderQueryReply(ByVal result As String) As RampTraineeResult.RAMPTraineeResult
            Dim oqr As RampTraineeResult.RAMPTraineeResult = New RampTraineeResult.RAMPTraineeResult()
            Dim serializer As New XmlSerializer(GetType(RampTraineeResult.RAMPTraineeResult))
            Dim reader As New StringReader(result)
            oqr = DirectCast(serializer.Deserialize(reader), RampTraineeResult.RAMPTraineeResult)
            Return oqr

        End Function

Open in new window

RampTraineeResult.vb

(8, 2) means line 8, character 2.
The Exception should have an InnerException with the exact cause of the error.
