Can anyone tell me if there is an equivalent VB.Net function to php serialize?
I need to then encode the serialized string and then use a function similar
to php base64_encode?

Possibly somebody in a newsgroup for VB.Net which would have "dotnet" in the
name of the group.  This group is for VB 6 and earlier and VB.Net questions
are off-topic.

You can start asking in microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb. This group is
for classic VB6 and below.

Hi Andrew,

You can probably use SOAP formatting (declarative or imperative) to make it
base64 encoded, but best to ask this in a dotnet forum such as :

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

Andrew,

There is a lot of encoding in Net.

There is UrlEncoding (in fact HTTP encoding), there is string encoding en
byte encoding and probably much more

Because your question is a typical Framework question and not typical VB I
advice you to look in the newsgroup

microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet

The most change the byte encode is probably what you want.
