Question

Am calling an existing wcf service to select records once the record is pulled over thru wcf i do my logic(kinda upload),once its done i have to update the record in the DB.

Here is the way am calling the wcf service

 GatewayService.ServiceClient proxy = new ServiceClient("IService");

        SearchCriteria criteria = new SearchCriteria();
        criteria.UserRoles = new string[]{"*"};


        var stories = proxy.GetStoryItemsByCriteria(criteria);

        var programs = proxy.GetPrograms();

        var readyToDistribute = from story in stories
                                where story.Submitted
                                        && story.Status == "Open"
                                        select story;

        var joined = from story in readyToDistribute
                     join program in programs on story.ProgramId equals program.Id
                     select new StoryProgram(story, program);

        foreach (StoryProgram sp in joined)
        {
            Distribute(sp.Story, sp.Program);
            //update the status here in DB

        }

Below is the WCF Service and Controller details

Below code in the Service

public void UpdateProgram(ProgramData prg)
{
    ServiceController.UpdateProgram(prg);
}

below code in the service Controller

internal static void UpdateProgram(ProgramData prg)
{

    IProgramDAO prgDAO = DataAccessObjectFactory.GetProgramDAO();
    prgDAO.Update(prg);


}

I have the status column in my story table i have to update once the distribute function done.

Any help please.Thanks in Advance

You would need to add an Update method to your WCF service, and call that, with the new data, to update the DB records.

Given your comment, you should be able to do something like this:

for each (StoryProgram sp in joined) 
{
    Distribute(sp.Story, sp.Program);             

    // Make any changes you need to sp.Program 

    proxy.UpdateProgram(sp.Program);  
}
