Saving my settings

Hi @all
I'm really new to programming, so please dont' lose patience. Now, I'm writing a VB .net application in which (as in most apps) the user shall setup a configuration (via checkboxes etc.). This whole configuration is stored in a structure. But of course, I need to save the configuration for next start: so, is there any simple way to do so
I don't know if this is possible, but a solution would be exporting the structure to XML, saving this to file, and reading it on startup. Is this suitable? Or anything else

Thank
Sam
