Tanu,
In response to your answer to (b); I am aware I need to republish/overwrite the map service when modifications are made such as change in symbology. BUT, after I republish, I have to go back into the Web App Builder (Silverlight) and remove the old map service layer and add the new one, which shares the same Rest End point. Is there a way to accomplish this without having to do that. I would like my clients to be able to republish without having to access our Builder and see other map services that they do not need to see.
Basically is there a way to republish and have the symbology changes reflect without having to add/remove the same rest end point?
Thanks.
T. Long,
I'm afraid, I don't quite understand it correctly.
Since your map service's REST url is not changed, there is no reason you need to rebuild you web app... it should simply work without any kind of modification.
Thanks.

Because it is a Map Service, when I make edits to the map, it does reflect instantly on the Web App. I would like to set it up so when I edit Symbology, it also reflects on the Web Map.
Right now, if I change Symbology in ArcMap I republish and the symbology changes on the Service Address but does not reflect the changes in the actually map unless I remove the Rest end point and then re-add it.
it should work... that is the purpose of dynamic map service; as you modify the source map or data, the next export request from a web app should reflect those changes right away.
At this point, I'd recommend you to contact Esri Support to take a look at what is going on. Without looking at your web app and/or not knowing how everything is setup, it is hard to pin down the problem...
Thanks.
