Ok. I'd like to use XML-RPC so... I'll explore the option you suggested below. > In XML-RPC, I think the standard way to do this would be to create fault > codes for each expected exception.

So from what I have read on XML-RPC there are supposed to be some list of predefined exceptions (although I am having difficulty find that), and then I guess you can always create your own. So, right now I am creating a WebServer, and then calling addHandler() with a java object. Then it looks for public methods when doing an execute. There doesn't seem to be a way to set the fault code with this method. I'm guessing the only way to implement my own fault codes is to pass the WebServer a XmlRpcServer an object that implements interface org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcHandler. Correct? Thanks for the reply. And thanks for being patient with a newbie :) -Tanya
