Hello,

I have an existing application that has a large number of web services. I
want to connect to those web services and consume them for my PocketPC phone
Application. The only problem that I am having is that I cannot seem to see
how I can databind to my controls in VS2005.

In a small example, I am trying to pass a username and password and return a
UserID. I see everything but the UserID. In my other apps, I used datasets,
but there don't appear to be any in the Compact Framework...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In programming for the PocketPC, I have a simple application that connects
to a webservice and downloads a dataset (which is created from an xml file
on the server) which then populates a datagrid.

All that is required is to add a web reference in my application to this
webservice, then to simply program against it to download the dataset with a
few lines of code.

As to datasets existing in the compactframework 2.0, they are there as
Data.DataSet in VB 2005

In you example, I don't see why you need datasets. It seems to me that your
service is accepting strings and
returning a string (the userid)
