Visual C# Express and Web Services

T

I'm new to c# and Visual C# Express, and to normal programming in
general (some background in web programming), and i have a question
vital to my current project.

Basically, i have been asked to learn how to create new extensions for
a web application, and turns out that i need to use Visual Studio and
IIS together to do this.

One of the first steps is to create a web service from within Visual
Studio, using the ASP.NET Web Service template.

I found myself overjoyed when i found out Microsoft was giving away
express versions of their Visual Studio series, because i thought 'hey,
i don't have to fork over any amount of money to do my job!', but am
finding myself at a loss.

specifically, i don't see the ASP.NET Web Service template anywhere in
Visual C# Express. I've tried searching the internet, but for some
reason it seems like VIsual C# Express is clouded in mystery-people
that use it seem to know it's limitations and don't have any questions
about it.

Is there a template i can download for the ASP.NET Web Service, or is
it within another of the Visual Studio Express Series (C++, Basic, or
J#?)? or is this web service only available to the full version of
Visual Studio?

Thanks in advance for your help!

You need Visual Web Developer Express.

Visual C# Express does Windows development.
