Newbee question

[kss444]

I am very new to sharepoint, I was just told to start looking at it. I need to find a way to create our own web services to get to any of the lists that we need too.

Has anyone written their own web services to access sharepoint DB?
The only thing I can find on the web is about creating your own web part.
Thanks in advance.

Yes you can write a web service if you want too. Dont really need it just to acess lists? (it's already built in)

You can use SPList class to access lists without having to use a webservice...

just google an example of SPList and that is pretty basic to get you started....

also go to mindsharp.com or google Windows SharePoint Services Object Model it's great....
