Help Saving Settings?

Question

OK I have a program that creates a variable displays that variable in a textbox the user uses buttons to edit the variables content and when the form closes I use the Properties.Settings.Default.Setting hoping when I pull up the form again the Setting will be put into the value of the variable (How I have it programmed to do) go into the textbox for user input to edit and when I'm done it saves it to start all over. But it doesn't. It doesn't show any errors it just doesn't save for the next time I use it. What's the best way to do this? What am I doing wrong?

In case if you want to persist information for longer duration better to store it in database as Windows Work Flows does.

Better if you Use Binary Searialization for this string ss = Sukesh Marla; FileStream fs = new FileStream(MyData.data FileMode.Create); BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter(); formatter.Serialize(fs ss); fs.Close(); string s = null; FileStream fs = new FileStream(MyData.data FileMode.Open); BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter(); s = (string)formatter.Deserialize(fs); fs.Close(); Console.WriteLine(s); Check this is correct answer if it helped.
