Is there a way to exclude a field for SOAP call?

I have webservice that returns a list of a object, this object contains a field like below

public Object Owner = null;

When I call the webserice, I get error, but the error gone if I comment out the above code. So I believe it is about serialize of the Owner, I am thinking if I can exclude the Owner from the return of the SOAP call, it will solve the problem.

Any idea how to do that? thanks

Hi,

Try declare the public object Owner as private(e.g: private Object Owner = null;) or to exclude a field using [NonSerialized] attribute. Please refer to the following articles.
