Hi, all,
   I am working on a fairly basic utility to do file importing for our data
/ image indexing department.  I would like this to be client-server based
using remoting so that the file copy work is done on the server side rather
than the client.  Here's my question / issue.

   On the client side, consumer applications will create a datatable that
lists all of the file paths for the source files to be merged into our
central repository.  I want to hand that datatable off to a server object
via remoting.  I got the basics working, but ran into a snag.

   The server process that copies the files into the repository also
changes the file paths.  I want to populate the datatable with the new
filepaths such that the client sees the updated path.  However, because the
datatable is serializable and passed by value (i.e. a copy is made), the
changes I make on the server side are not reflected on the client.

   Is there a way to get the changes to propogate back to the client (i.e.
pass the datatable by reference rather than by value)?  I thought of
changing the return type of the remote method call and passing back the
modified dataset, but I thought I would see if perhaps I was just making
some configuration error first.

Thanks,
David
