How can i get the status and the estimated time when calling the Web Services

[Norton]

Dear All,

I have an operation which will download a very large dataset from a web
service.
And i would like to know if there any method to :

Get the percentage completed?
Get the partial Dataset in order to bind it to datagrid as soon as
possible?

Thx and regards,
Norton

Hi,

I do not believe there is any way to get an estimated time when
calling a web service. You can call the web service async and place a
progress bar in the status bar to show it is doing something. Here is a
link to some msdn tv episodes that show how to do it.

Do lot's of testing, but expect your results to be wrong at some point!!!
