Serialization of class instance stored in database

[Mark]

I'd like to take an instance of a class and store it in a database. I've
marked my class as [Serializable] and am using the binary formatting code
similar to
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...onconcepts.asp,
although I'd be happy to use something else. What method should be used to
store this serialized class in a SQL Server database? Likewise, what method
should be used to recreate this instance from the datbase?

Thanks in advance.
