ADO.NET and Webservices

[Himanshu]

Hello,

I'm trying to build a webservices 'application' that basically allows
any sort of client to plug-in and do do updates to the database
through ADO.NET (ODBC)

So generally like this,

[ CLIENT APP ] <------> [ WEB SERVICES ] <-----> [ ADO.NET ]

Would anyone know of any links ... that give recommended strategies on
best practices, etc... to build those components.....

I've got the database structure, but a bit lost on how to best model
the webservices so that the client app can properly do
add/remove/updates.... and also allow synchronisation between
different clients.

Would really appreciate on any pointers in this area

Cheers,

Himanshu
