The GetCustomer Web Service would call the GetCustomer() method in a Business class, which would call the GetCustomer() method in a DataAccess class, which would make the actual call to the database and fill the DataSet. The DataSet would be passed back to the Business class (which would do any business processing necessary). The Business class would pass the DataSet back to the Web Service. The Web Service would serialize the DataSet to XML and pass it back to the calling UI form, which would deserialize it back into a DataSet.

I'm now confused as of when to use WEB SERVICE, REMOTING, or COM+.
In the example you mentioned, don't you think that remoting is a better solution.
