using x509Certificates for a Web Service

I am having some troubles and really need some help. I am trying to create
an x509 cert (makecert.exe) and use it for a proof of concept for my
company. I need to make a certificate, have the web service return the
public key for this certificate to the client which will encrypt a message
with it, then have the web service decrypt the message with the private key.
When I create a cert where does it go? How do I load the cert I just
created? It is looking for a .cer file and I don't know the path were these
are created. How do I return the public key from this cert to the client?
How do I encrypt the message with the public key on the client? How do I
decrypt the message on the server with the private key?

This is urgent, we are trying to get some framework for webservices in place
and I can't find any VB.NET code for this. Thanks.
