Web Services question

hi,
if my webmethod fails (eg database server is down) how do i send this
message back to the caller of the web method.
thanx

There are many different ways that you could approach this problem.

Just like any other function out there, you could create a return value that
specified whether or not a procedure or function successfully completed.

You could simply send back an empty resultset instead of actual data.

And so forth.

Sure, Raise a SOAP exception.
