  I am working on XML Serialization/deserialization.I have a class called clsPerson.vb (Given below)  that i am trying to serialize / deserialize
  

  
  Imports System.Xml.Serialization
  Imports System.IO
  Imports System
  Imports System.Data
  Imports System.Drawing
  Imports System.Web
  Imports System.Xml
  

  
  

  
  <XmlRoot(ElementName:="Class_Person")> _
  Public Class clsPerson
     Private strName As String
     Private intAge As Integer
  

  
     <XmlElement(ElementName:="Property_Name")> _
     Public Property Name() As String
         Get
             Return strName
         End Get
         Set(ByVal strValue As String)
             strName = strValue
         End Set
     End Property
  

  
     <XmlElement(ElementName:="Property_Age")> _
     Public Property age() As Integer
         Get
             Return intAge
         End Get
         Set(ByVal intValue As Integer)
             intAge = intValue
         End Set
     End Property
     Public Function Hello() As String
         Dim s As String
         s = "Hi! My name is " & Name & " and I am " & Age & " years old."
         Return s
     End Function
     Public Function Goodbye() As String
         Return "So long!"
     End Function
  

  
  End Class
  

  
  I am trying to serialize the  class using the following code
  

  
         Dim oXS As XmlSerializer   = New XmlSerializer(GetType(clsPerson))
          Dim objPerson As New clsPerson()
         objPerson.Name = "Sabarish"
         objPerson.age = 26
         Response.Write(objPerson.Hello() & "<br>")
         Response.Write(objPerson.Goodbye() & "<br>")
         'Serialize object to XML and write it to XML file
         Dim objStmw As StreamWriter
         objStmw = New StreamWriter(Server.MapPath("lucky.xml"))
         oXS.Serialize(objStmw, objPerson)
         objStmw.Close()
  

  
  When i run the code i get the following error
  

  
  File or assembly name sc5_x2xc.dll, or one of its dependencies, was not found.
  Line 53:  Dim oXS As XmlSerializer   = New XmlSerializer(GetType(clsPerson))
  

  
  and the funniest part is that the dll name sc5_x2xc.dll keeps on changing, can any one help me on this
