good way to save user input on windows application? (newbie)

Hi all,

I am relatively new to programming and currently working on a windows form application in visual studio. I have been looking into a few different ways to save user input (Names, address, email and a short paragraph of information about the individual) basically a couple of text boxes, I will need to recall all this information at a later point. I have had a look into sql databases and xml  to save input but as a beginner just wondering if these methods maybe overkill for a small app? Can anyone advise a simpler method?

any advice would be appreciated and thanks in advance .
