Sorry for the bum steer. What you might return is an empty dataset (for
example).

Take a look at this:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnbda/html/exceptdotnet.asp
and:
http://www.artima.com/interfacedesign/exceptions.html
which may help you decide how to implement this based on your application's
purpose.

Also, consider signing up for the list I mentioned previously.

Cheers
Ken

If my method is:

public DataSet GetProductSet() {}

How do I return a string?
