Hi,

I would like to access a database through web services (not ODBC).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am totally blank on this aspect!

Thanks
 
Can you post a little background on what you are trying to achieve.
Webservices are not a replacement for ODBC but can be used with ASP.NET and
ADO.NET to access and update database information.
 
Hi Davidson,

The project I am working on is a Client-Server model using ODBC to access data residing on a server. Now, we would like to shift to Web Services.

So, I am required to write a module which from any remote computer accesses the server(database which is in Access), opens it, does a select * on one of the tables and displays the result in the client's console and then does a close database.

Is it possible to do it using XML/ADO.NET & ASP.NET?

Pls let me know, a snipppet of code would be of great help.

Thanks again,
