Hello!
I have created a web service that is working on my localhost using IIS.
If I enter the asmx file in this way http://localhost/webcalc/webcalc.asmx
for the web service in the Internet explorer I can see at the top a link to
Service Description.

If I click on this link an XML file is shown and this address is shown at
the address field
http://localhost/webcalc/webcalc.asmx?WSDL

Now to my question. In my web service project I have only two files which
are:
1. An ASMX file called webcalc.asmx
2.A code-behind file where the methods are implemented called service.cs

Is this XML file creted automatically by the internet expoler when a click
at the service description above

The WSDL file is created automatically by the .NET framework on the server
when you visit that link.
Internet Explorer is not involved - apart from displaying it of course :)
