web services and databases

Hi guys,
I'm trying to write a web service that gets two numbers (a and b, for
example) from a database( access or sqlserver) and then returns the result,
a*b, in the database. I'm having problems finding a tutorial that will show
me how to do this job.
Thanks

What exactly do you need help on? Creating a web service or retrieving data
from a database?

The web service( in Visual Basic.Net) is created already(I created a method
that performs the multiply of two numbers). What I don't understand is how
can I create a client application that can read the values from a
table(access or sqlserver) and then send these values like parameters to the
multiply function(method) from the web service. The client application must
put the result in the table.
Thanks

I'm sorry, I'm having trouble understanding what you want.

You want the client application to retrieve 2 values from a DB, send those 2
values to a web service to have the values multiplied and bring the answer
back to the client application for it to put back into the DB?

If this is correct you are simply creating a web service that multiplies 2
input parameters and returns the answer as one output parameter?
