Could someone give this newbie to .net a few good business examples of
when to choose to use XML Web Services over ASP.net web pages. I don't
need code, just examples of when to think of using it. Thanks! Dav

When you don't any kind of user interface and your data will be used by
other web- or desktop applications. It can be for example, a stock
quote lookup, to return latest trade for any client software.

In general terms according to "good ol' Don" (Don Box) a WebService
should be used when
there's a COMPUTER in need of data and NOT a USER...
Off course all this is semantics since mostly there'll be a user
looking at that data at
some point, but if there's a COMPUTER wanting to get data then use
WebServices...
