In addtition to the wonderful new Code Snippet Functionality in Visual Studio 2005, i provide a binary serialization code snippet for C#. This is only to save to a binary File.
The Code Snippets from Microsoft, available here, have only the Xml Serialization.
Just put it in your #PROGRAMFILES#\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC#\Snippets\1033\Visual C# Directory.
Have phun,
