There is no direct way provided by webservices to maintain state. But webservices can maintain the state by using asp.net instrinsic objects i.e Session and application.

using System.web.Services;

public class myWebService : Webservices

{

[Webmethod()]

public void maintainState(string value)

{

Session(“Val”) = value;

}

}
