RE: Need suggestions on web service interop and design

Paul,

Sounds like you might be hung up on W3C XML schema.  Why not just do
something like this?

<complexType name="BooksType">
  <sequence minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded">
    <element name="Book" type="string"/>
  </sequence>
</complexType>
<element name="Books" type="tns:BooksType"/>

That way, you could have XML that looks like this:

<Books xmlns="..." xmlns:xsi="..." xsi:schemaLocation="...">
  <Book>Book1</Book>
  <Book>Book2</Book>
</Books>

Jonathan,

Good effort! While I was able to create simple doc/literal service which
works
with .NET (in this case InfoPath), the stumbling block is having arrays of
simple types as return types. If you could extend your example to handle
return
types as e.g. string arrays that would be REALLY helpful.

Thanks,
