There are too many ways to do that. You could encode the binary data as a
field in your XML file, you could use COM structured file storage to split
the XML from the binary data, etc., etc., etc.

To do which? XML? Read the XML stuff in the VS.NET help. COM? Read the
help on structured file storage. There's no right answer to your question,
just a list of possible options. Your application requirements will
determine what the right strategy is.
