data from webservices

[Brian Henry]

Is it possible to get data from a webservice into a pocket pc in a data set
to be used from the internet? (this will be on a internet connected
smartphone running pocketpc with Comact .net framework 1.1) thanks!

You can create a web service function that returns DataSet object. Compact
Framework will understand it.

well I seem to be having a problem with it... our webservice is local and on
http://webserver/wsData.ASMX and when i try to do a method on that web
service that returns a dataset it crashes giving me a excetion, but when it
runs from an external website it works fine... any ideas?

Probably you are having problems with accessing the web service in general.
Instead of "webserver" try using the machine's IP address
