Web service questionIf I have a web service about which all I know is the URL, i.e.
http:/server:portnum/methodname (no WSDL, no nothing else), can I reference and use a web service like this in a VB.Net program? And if I can, then how? Thanx! -- TFWBWY...A

I tried to run the WSDL program that comes with the SDK, but that even had problems with it. Any other ideas?

the URL executing it is understood on that end it is suppose to perform such and such an action just cause the URL got called. I gave an obvious answer due to the lack of information.

information that I have about it. Stupid 3rd-party package... Let's try this angle: The URL comes from the "Stupid 3rd-party package" (hereafter known as "S3PP") in which I set up a 'pseudo-web-service' which is just a URL that kicks off a script within the S3PP. Technically, I should be able to pass it XML based on 'standard' rules of passing arguments via HTTP (If the terminology is not exactly right, please forgive me, as I'm still learning...), i.e. http://server:port/method?Parm1=xxx&Parm2=yyy should result in an XML 'document' passed to the web service as <Parm1>xxx</Parm1><Parm2>yyy</Parm2>. Right? So if I had an XML document that looked like this: <Order> <OrderHeader> <OrderDate>Date1</OrderDate> </OrderHeader> <LineItems> ... etc ... </LineItems> </Order> .... how would I pass it as parms to a web service? Could I use a more bare-bones HTTP Post to do it? (Again, please forgive me if my terminology is askew). Thanx!

Muy problem is it is really difficult for me to get into your application becasue I don't have anything remotely resembling it. I understand what you are trying to acomplish but it is a reach for me. If you can contact me on my site, send me a sample project and let me take a shot at it and I will see what I can do. -- Show quoteHide quoteGet a powerful web, database, application, and email hosting with KJM Solutions http://www.kjmsolutions.com "Bryan Dickerson" <txprp***@netscape.net> wrote in message news:O83CfJWQGHA.2628@TK2MSFTNGP15.phx.gbl... > Anyone?

another question... (I don't know if the terminology is correct, but...) How would I post a stream/string of XML to a URL via VB.NET? E.g. I have an XML test file and I just want to lob it at a given URL, what would the code look like to do that?
