Hmmm ... and you're binding the DataSet to the DataGrid the same way (after you call the WebService to get the data)? If so, I'm not sure what the problem might be now ... check out things like maybe the Table name. You're sure the DataSet is being returned correctly and that there's data in the DataSet?

>>I don't think the problem is with returning the DataSet, I think it's in your WebService itself ... you never instantiated the loData object:

>>   lcHtml=...
>>
>>   ' However, in this method, we will now convert it into a DataSet
>>   Dim loData As DataSet

>>   ' I Added this line:
>>   loData = new DataSet
>>
>>   loData=ImportXML(loData, lcHtml)
>>   Return loData
>>End Function
