You mean the person calling the WebService needs to know if it's coming from the cache? How are you caching the DataSet right now? Are you using the WebMethodAttribute::CacheDuration property or are you working with the cache internal to the method yourself? With the answer to these questions we should be able to help you come up with a solution.
