mike55 Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Hi all What is the most effective way of passing a sqlDataReader from a web service back to a web application? I have tried to pass it back as an object data type, but problems arise when I try to convert that object back to an sqldatareader using ctype. Any suggestions? Mike55.

Administrators PlausiblyDamp Posted November 2, 2006 Administrators Posted November 2, 2006 You can't is the simple answer. The SqlDataReader requires direct access to the SQL Server and this can't be guaranteed if you are returning it from a webmethod. You are better simply returning the relevant data to the client from the method instead.
