Hi MREcoolio, Thanks for your reply... I was able to transfer a stream to my client without any trouble when the file size is less than 64kb ("maxReceivedMessageSize" property of the "binding" element)... I understand that this is the default size limit and that we can change it to suit our requirements... But my problem is that no matter how large a number I specify for the "maxReceivedMessageSize" property, I get a communication fault exception. The following are the server and client config files for your reference.. The configuration as I said, works perfectly fine for files whose sizes are lesser than 64kb.. Am I missing something here? Server Side App.config:
<system.serviceModel>

Hi All, Thanks for all your replies... @Nagy Vilmos, Yes Nagy, I did think about what could be running.. It is just that I was not able to find what was running.. Debugging? Of course.. Anyways, thanks for your reply...
IE is a part of Windows itself and you can safely assume its existence on Windows. I personally won't go bothering about an usecase where the IE installation is corrupt for some unforeseen reasons. It may be negligible.

Hi Henry, Thanks for your reply. Using the DataGridView was always one the options that I had. Maybe its time that I zeroed-in on using the DataGridView... Thanks, ramz_g
