Using DockPanel Suite's XML saving with My.Settings

Question

In vb.net, how can I use SaveAsXML and LoadFromXML (DockPanel Suite functions) with My.Settings? I know there is a way to save it to a stream, but I don't know enough about System.IO to do this.

DockPanel Suite: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dockpanelsuite/

I would very much prefer to store configuration using My.Settings instead of as an XML file.

Thanks for the help!

EDIT: Since the only person to answer so far has since deleted their answer, I feel I should explain further: Those two methods can both accept a stream object, but I have not used System.IO enough to know how to properly initialize a stream, let alone get a string out of a stream.

EDIT: Googling has gotten me nowhere.

EDIT: Still waiting for this. I've tried everything...
