title: vb.net deserialize an xml string
body: <p>I've got a simple xml string that looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0"?&gt;
  &lt;AccountBalance&gt;
      &lt;value&gt;
          22.00
      &lt;/value&gt;
  &lt;/AccountBalance&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'd like to set the value of <code>&lt;value&gt;</code> to a variable in vb.net. How do I do this?</p>
