Save DataGridView Control to my.settings

[shaiss]

I have a DataGridView Control that looks like this

_________________
Name1 |Name2|
_________________
JOE |JOE |
_________________
SHAI |SHAI |
_________________
STEVE |STEVE|
_________________
STEVE |STEVE|
_________________

I have a button called "save"

What I want:
When the user clicks the save button the data from the DataGridView gets saved into a my.settings value so that I can call it at a later time when the user renters this form or on another form.

Question:
What variable type should the my.settings variable be?
How would you commit the DataGridView data to this variable in code?
How would you call this variable to fill another DataGridView

Thank you everyone for your help!

I don't think it is a good idea to save a whole datagridview data to registry if it is large. Better go for an xml/database file. If the data being used only for the current session then save into a dataset/datatable for re-use.

If you are still require to do the registry settings the google for "SaveSettings/Getsettings + vb.net"
