Calling a web service from asp.net

[John]

A little basic but ...

I've created a web service sucessfully and it can be consumed in the
creating app (Visual Foxpro).

When I go into asp.net it is looking for something of the form:

Dim CallWebService As New ServerName.WebServiceName()

WebServiceName is, of course, the name of my web service. But how do I
name/find/create the server they are looking for in ServerName?

Gratefully,

John

Hi John,

You need to use the .NET Frameworks' WSDL.EXE utility to generate the extra
code to wrap the Web service into a usable form. Here's where the
documentation is located:

Visual Studio .NET does much of this work for you when you add a Web service
reference to the project.
