ASP.NET doesn't handle multi-dimensional arrays (even tho .NET Remoting does handle both multi-dim and jagged arrays).
This is with .NET 1.0, don't know about .NET 1.1 Beta. See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=axis-user&m=102745381201131&w=2

Subject: .NET multi dimensional array
Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2002 18:19:06 -0500
I have a Java web service published to Axis that returns a 2 dimensional String array. It take no parameters:
public String[][] getTwo()
{
String[][] multiArray = new String[2][3];
multiArray[0][0] = "One1";
multiArray[0][1] = "One2";
multiArray[0][2] = "One3";
multiArray[1][0] = "Two1";
multiArray[1][1] = "Two2";
multiArray[1][2] = "Two3";
return multiArray;
}
I generate the WSDL and it looks great.
I generate Java clients with WSDL2Java.
Execute this code and it works great.
I then go into .NET
If I call a method that returns a one dimensional String array, then .NET works good.
But, the return method in .NET of getTwo() only returns a 'single' dimension array. I cannot cast it to anything else.
If I leave it at a single dimension, and run it, .NET give a message saying it does not suppor it.
Is this true?
It is saying I should use an array of arrays instead.
